I’ve been looking forward to trying this quietly famous suitcase clone - I’ve tasted it several times, but never followed it over the course of an evening. Pale garnet in color, no bricking. Black tea, as well as a hint of oak spice and herbaceousness by on the nose. Intense on the palate, elegant with subtlety, tannins well integrated. Cherry and strawberry. Medium body, medium alcohol, medium plus acidity. Still primary after 10 years, just barely beginning to show some age. No rush on this one.
