Beautiful late summer evening and a delicious meal shared with this guy...decanted for an hour of so and expressing a very fruit forward nose with pipe tobacco elements. To the palate we have dark plum and cherry followed by more pipe tobacco and licorice. Mild tannins and med finish. Drink now as I do not believe it could stand up to any real aging... nice though. — 6 years ago
