Notes on this wine are widely divergent. I'm in the strongly positive camp. The nose is dark cherry, the palate is layered with licorice, leather and more dark cherry. Good acid, medium body, medium length. 13.9 ABV. In a good place now, but will likely go another 3 - 5 years if cellared well.

Drinking very well now. Integrated soft tannins. Rich with a solid fruit core. Menthol, light leather and spice notes. 93-95
