Really pleasantly surprised with this one. Raspberry, blossoming rose with some flower stem, earth, and sunshine on the nose. Dense for a PN, but velvety. Tart cherries and berries, along with rich dark chocolate on the palate. Adding this to the rotation as a go-to PN. Priced for a weeknight, good enough for a Saturday with friends and family.

Very floral/perfumed. Recalled old lady perfume. Cloying sweetness that opened up into a warm honey sensation. A little syrupy. Drank over 5 days and dumped the last bits.

vibrant, inky, deep ruby. only translucent at the edge of the glass. on the nose, sweet cherry, pomegranate, juicy raisin, sunshine, chewing tobacco, unsmoked cigar. less complex on the palate--cherry, raisin, and date. full bodied and extremely smooth. tannins becoming well integrated, with plenty of staining and sediment inside the bottle. really good stuff.
