Boozy but yummy. A crowd pleaser, to be sure. Ripe notes of blueberry, blackberry, and plum. Hints of cocoa and vanilla. One or two glasses is enough. You might as well switch to Bourbon after that.

Unfortunately we waited a bit too long. Residue in the bottle neck and on the cork. Decanted immediately. Not bad, just enough past its freshness date to have a tinge of raisin on the nose. The bloom had gone, but what remained was still a good feel in the mouth and a variety of flavor components to explore. Did not pair well with the smoke roasted prime rib. Had high hopes with the chocolate eclair with dessert. Even after decanting for over an hour, it came up lacking.
