  It's been 6 years since I last had it.
  
  I actually remember it because it made the most lovely pan reduction sauce with veal stock for steaks and paired well with the steaks too.
  
  Pure tart cherry, leather, herbs. I would love to revisit this.

  Delicious.
  
  Baking spices, tobacco and red fruit on the nose.
  
  Coffee, red fruit and balanced acidity on the palate.
  
  Paired great with a prime ribeye steak.
  
  I find the notes below to be quite accurate.
