Big Expressive nose and a gorgeous ruby red with some definite bricking! Dark cherry and smokey meat hits the nose with the aroma scents lingering in the air with subtle note of pencil shavings and vanilla. Luv the taste with its licorice cherry fruit hitting the pallet bringing out flavors of meat and smoke with a glycerine coating and a long dry finish of dark chocolate, cedar and minerals. A little bit on the downside so drink now.

1/2 hour decant (decent chunky sediment). An impressive still dark ruby red color with some good bricking. On the nose: big expressive nose with dark cherry, smoked meat, minty almond milk, pencil shavings, and mushrooms. Taste: a creamy smooth medium plus body wine that coats the mouth with velvety tannins and a touch of dried blackberry, glycerin, smoke, cassis, and a minerally dark chocolate dry medium plus finish. On the downside, so drink em if you got em!! gonna enjoy this on this Saturday night!
