Tuesday, March 4, 2014 - Nose: Lovely and balanced nose with roasted herbs, roses, dark red cherries, anise seed, strawberries, and some tar notes. There is excellent medium depth to this with a seamless quality as well.
Taste: Medium bodied with medium+ acidity and silky tannins. The structure is far from overbearing and is well balanced with roasted herbs, dark red cherries, incense, anise seed, and tar notes.
Overall: This is drinking beautifully right now. The structure is still there for further aging, but this is in a perfect place right now.
