  Long decant, which at this point it obviously needs.
  Deep, dark and opaque plum with purple hues, showing high level staining in the legs, showing the high level of concentration and maceration techniques used.
  Medium-plus intensity of aromas show notes of brown sugar, baking spice, vanilla, violets, lavender, blackberry, blueberry, dark cherries, cassis and Chambord.
  Vivid and spicy on the palate with medium-plus acidity, moderate ripe tannins and medium-plus alcohol. Flavors upon entry still a little tight at this point, even with the air time but show richness in the flavors of baking spice, vanilla, blackberry & blueberry compote, plum sauce, dark cherries crushed violets, lavender and brown sugar. medium-plus on the finish which highlights the barrel accents at this point in time.
  
  Overall young but well put together. needs a couple years at least.
