Brick red. Significant funk in the nose and pencil shavings. Cherry fruit in the mouth, tannins are faded but enough acidity remains. Distinct black tea on the finish. On it's way out, suggest drink up.

- Purple color with fast forming legs and aromas of cherry and violet. It's balanced and has flavours of tea, cherry and blackberry with a medium/full body. Fleshy texture with a long finish.

Jam, underbrush, mineral. Still some acidity but probably should drink up

Better than previous bottles. Farmy but pleasant nose, brick color. Surprising acidity and dried montmorency cherries, mineral.

Killer PN at the state monopoly store's sale price of $17. Bright cherries, red fruit, hint of spicy tea. Drinking very nicely now. If scoring 90-92.
