When you're in the mood Herman Story does not disappoint. Big but balanced

This bottle is quite the flashback to jr. high! Tart cherry and leather on the nose. Spiced rhubarb compote. Fairly firm tannins. Really interesting wine, but a fairly high ABV. Decanted and waiting to open. It promises good things!

Possibly past peak? That said, smooth as silk. Agree with prior rating and kirsch description. Finish sails on for the better part of a minute.
