Deep garnet in color with a slightly bricking/red edge. Nose of cherries, crushed blackberry, and hints of dark chocolate and leather. Tastes of dark cherries, blackberry, tobacco, and moca. Nice purity of fruit. Fully resolved tannins. Well balanced with slightly pronounced acidity. At its prime. Drink over the next 3-4 years.

Still drinking nicely. Some earthiness on the nose. Bright acidity, deep color. More fruit would have made it more enjoyable I think. Past prime but still good
