Saturday, July 23, 2016 - Dark garnet, opaque, with no signs of browning. Immediate pronounced aromas of charred wood, black fruits, plums, mocha, pepper, quite complex. High glycerin, very viscous. Full-bodied flavors but perfectly balanced, tannins in the background. Black fruits with earth, hint of anise. A bit high on the alcohol. Very long finish, with anise becoming a bit more pronounced. En Cerise is one of my favorites of Baron's syrahs, always a great balance of power and elegance. This is fully mature but should easily hold another few years.
