Medium crimson with slight bricking in color. Red and black fruits, spice, and dried flower notes all emerge from the glass, and follow on to the palate. Drinking very well right now. I am glad I have one left.

Bright dark golden color, with a perfume of apricot, peach, banana, and fresh herbs lifting from the glass. Concentrated layers of marmalade, honey lemon, and caramel apple show immediately on the palate. I get a secondary, grounding note of light spice and a hint of roasted nuts. The fruit shows through, with a very nice weight, balance, and richness to the mouth feel. Long finish.

Opened, not decanted. Bricking-purple in color. Dark fruit flavors of blue and black fruits are mature, but still drinking fresh after a bit of air. Nicely balanced, with a medium-long finish.
