Tasted non blind. Opened and decanted for sediment before serving immediately. Followed over about an hour.

Garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout with just a little bit of bricking. Stunning nose of briar patch, rose petals, herbs du Provence and tobacco taking on secondary and tertiary aromas with air of caramel, cinnamon, potpourri and a hint of currant. Flavors of berries, cherries, raspberries, plums and currants. Medium acidity, resolved tannins, full bodied. Drink now, might hold for some time to come but seems to be at the sweet spot or perhaps a hair past.
