Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 29, 2015 - Allowed to decant.
Aromas present with medium-plus intensity.
Scents creme de cassis, vanilla, cherry, cocoa powder, raspberry, fresh herbs including thyme and bay leaf, coffee and earth with aromas of cigar box, cedar, currant and a hint of pepper.
The palate is complex and giving with favors cherry, sweet pipe tobacco, vanilla, cassis, herbs, chocolate, spice and leather with earth, coffee and toast. The palate is voluptuously textured, like suede across the mid-palate with dusty, grippy medium+ tannins on the front, balanced acidity and alcohol providing structure. The finish is long and lingers with intensity letting the tobacco, cassis, and cocoa play out.
