Smoky black fruit on the nose. Blueberry, black cherry, blackberry palate, maybe some pepper. Mild tannins suggest limited aging potential, so not for long keeping, but there is good complexity here.

Smokiness with lots of kirsch cherry & blackberry on the nose. Some licorice & herbal suggestions but mostly fruit dominates aromas. Deep, dark red in color. Tons of lush fruit with kirsch, red currant, and blackberry jamminess. Toasted oak & some heat initially then a mid-palate adding some teeth gripping tannins. Long finish of plum, cherry, & more oakiness followed by some vanilla.

Sort of dull. Nothing special here
