Dark as boar’s blood. Smells, dense, ripe and strange. Inky perhaps. Flavors are balanced, juicy, and dry. Lots of licorice, berry and some brandy, bourbon tones. Plenty of cigar and hot road tar in a rainstorm on the backside. Hints of mugwort and artemisia perhaps too. This is a clean and rich Napa style wine with complexity. Could age for a while with the tannins. Not fully funky, but interesting.
