Black-garnet with medium garnet rim

Lots of black cherry juice in nose, wrapped in Saigon cinnamon and 70% cocoa. Still somewhat reticent, some heat prickles. Mouth is rich & velvety, very tannic but enjoyable. Way more blackberry oriented than the nose would indicate, which I love. Lots of secondary tar/tobacco notes here. Finish is fruit-dominated but has great structure. Try again 2015-2025.
