Wow so many layers. A brief decanting shows mostly berry notes and a longer decanting brings out the rosemary herbal nose and more dusty taste. The nose is so intricate. Not a simple fullon floral tone, and not justa handful of must either. Overall tastes like Bordeaux, but the blend gives it more layer of herbal, dusty, and silky layers. Color is more cherry red than typical Bordeaux maroon tone. Can't stop stipping more and studying it more!
