(from Chappellet's notes):
Intense, ripe and concentrated, the rich fruit aromas of baked cherry and ripe plum are supported by notes of anise, dark chocolate, and roasted coffee. Flashy new French oak characteristics of allspice, cinnamon and hints of smoke intertwine flawlessly. The palate displays luscious flavors of fruit and spice as well as rich mouthfilling tannins. Drink now through 2012.
