COLOR: Typical opaque blackish-purple right to the rim. Like old oil.
NOTE: This was the last half of a bottle we CV'd twice before, and it was just so good. The nose was scorched rosewood, fresh boysenberry, cherry pipe tobacco, grilled beef, tar, blueberry compote, vanilla and cinnamon. Whoa! Mouth was scorched blueberry bush, blackberry liqueur, tar, brown sugar and molasses! Finish kept up the same theme as the mouth and then added some bruleed marshmallow and cracked granite. Amazing juice.
