Inky ruby. A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe cherry and dark berries, pipe tobacco, vanilla, cola and exotic spices. Sweet, seamless and broad in the mouth, offering intense blackcurrant, cherry preserve, fruitcake and mocha flavors that are sharpened by a suggestion of cracked pepper. The floral and vanilla notes come back strong on an impressively tenacious finish that's framed by supple, slow-building tannins. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, December 2021)
