This just keeps getting better. Huge nose of black cherry and dark, dark chocolate. Extremely intense cherry and blackberry flavor, with just a touch of forest (canopy, bark and floor). It's so juicy and tasty that the tannins aren't noticeable... at first. But eventually – after the long finish of chocolate, espresso, charcoal and strawberry faded – my tongue and inner cheeks told me there was still some tannin present.

Big wine, with lots of blackberry, cherry and tar, with hints of licorice, earth, coffee and leather. It's a huge presence, almost a meal unto itself, but so much fun.
