Saturday, November 5, 2022 - Nice purple color, slightly translucent, no bricking.
Aromas of sweet tobacco, cherry pie, smoky oak, pencil lead, graphite, and a little bit of forest floor. Very nice.
Palate is creamy in texture showing layered red and black fruits that are a bit too sweet, tobacco, and a just a touch of oak on the finish. There is still decent acidity to balance and tannins that are mostly integrated, a little dry though. Early maturity, drink now - 2025
