Wow. Stunning. Cherry and cherry flower explosion out of the glass. Palate is crazy concentrated cherry juice and spice. Great juiciness. Finish is long sour cherry juice. Really alive. Great freshness. Has the structure to last for a decade or more. Bought from Fass Selections. ...As time goes on some lovely spice on the nose. ... an hour in internal aromatics kicking in. Explosive concentrated cherry. Wow. ... 90 minutes in nose has this almost dusty gorgeous quality.
