Aroma - Very aromatic with ripe black and red cherry and blackcurrant fruit, vanilla and cinnamon spice with cedar, autumn leaves, oak, graphite, red licorice, and cocoa.
Palate - Full-bodied with ripe red and black fruit and baking spice on entry, with oak and dusty tobacco notes joining on the midpalate, and balanced acidity keeping things elegant and fresh. The finish is long and complex with mouth-filling, fine tannins, lingering cherry fruit, barrel spice, and oak with subtle floral notes.
