Dense ripe and plummy black fruits cassis black strap licorice. Acidity is bright and steely mouthwatering on finish. Good complexity and great length and persistence.

Well balanced, with med acidity and med body. On the nose I smell blackberry, black plum, smoke with a meaty note. On the palate, I get black fruit

Tasty but not as complex as I was hoping it would be. Fruit overshadows everything else. Fig newton and blackberry syrup.
