Saturday, October 30, 2010 - nose: kind of unexciting, there is some red and black fruit accompanied by sweet caramel. nothing unusual, nothing unlikable.
palate: very smooth, the alcohol isn't forceful to taste but manifests in the supple viscosity of the mouthfeel (in a pleasant way). Chocolatey flavors complement strong fruit and the /medmed-low acid well. Fine grained tannin that hides behind the fruit. A very nice cocktail. I can't see this pairing with food, but to drink on its own on a Saturday afternoon, this does just fine, thank you very much. Not terribly complex. Good buy for $22.
