February 3, 2020 - Deep, dark reddish-purple in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of red cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of dried herbs & earthy/dusty notes, cocoa, some spices, minerals & a hint of cedar in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of sour cherries, raspberries & red plums with herbs, earthy, minerals, spices & a hint of vanilla/oak. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but has the potential for further development with additional aging.
