A spectacular Rufous Red, with brilliant highlights when held to candle light. Legs well dispersed with lengthly cling at 14.8% ABV. Nose of mahogany, alcohol (duh!), maybe BBQ sauce, some hint of smoke and wow, Franciscan fruitcake T (yeah, I know). This is a fine wine, but let it stand for at least 15 minutes to calm a bit after opening. All around, an easy drink, maybe too easy! Pair well with BB King.
