Nose of dusty sour cherries and a note of sandlewood. Smell hot. (and is) Palate is soft, but still has some tannin, and I think the tannin will last longer than the fruit. The alcohol is pretty off-putting for me. Ignoring the alcohol, the palate continues the sour cherry theme, and is pleasant enough with smoked duck breast. Probably would of been best consumed in its youth, when the massive fruit covered up the alcohol.
