August 29, 2023 - Oppose to the 2012 Inferno this bottle fortunately showed well.
Tomato/tomato leaves, gravel, perhaps a slight pepper-herbal thing (imagining it being mountain herbs but who knows) on the nose. Cherries in the background, and I mention this as it feels the primary flavors might be fading.
Same in the mouth with the addition of red plums, more pronuced dark and red cherries. Texturally this is sensual, yet still grippy grainy tannins.
A long pretty finish.128 views
