Very dark profile aromatically! Fairly surprising. Only 13.5ABV, but expected with the vintage. Lots of sweet baking spices, ripe red, blue and black fruits berry fruits with currant too. On the palate, the fruit is very gummy...like fruit roll ups. Candied sweet tarts, cedar and a semi thin finish. It’s not on a decline, but it’s certainly not going to get better, and with the structure how it is, gaining more age to shed the fruit away will make this more thin than it already is.
