Monday, January 26, 2015 - Nose: The nose here is more searching and mysterious with dark red cherries, raspberries, juniper berries, mushroom notes, licorice, roasted herbs, tobacco, leather, earth tones, and violets. There is good depth with this being one of the more distinctive noses in the lineup.

Taste: The feel is Medium/full bodied with high acidity and chewy, high tannins. The structure is extremely youthful and a bit brooding, but there are lovely and darker tones of raspberries, dark red cherries, juniper berries, mushrooms, licorice, roasted herbs, earth tones, and violets.

Overall: This had a distinctive extra savoriness to it that some of the others in the lineup didn't. There is excellent depth, but it is also holding back a bit right now.
