Nose: The nose is deep and soaring as it fills the glass with black cherries, tobacco, raspberries, sour red fruits, spice tones, licorice, smoke, cedar, and loads of savory notes. It takes a bit to take everything in and easy to get completely lost in the glass. Taste: The feel is full bodied with tart, medium+ acidity and resolved, medium tannins. The feel is refined, mature, and impeccably balanced with black cherries, raspberries, sour red fruits, tobacco, licorice, violets, cedar, and smoke notes. Overall: This was a truly spectacular wine. A little was poured off and it was given air in the bottle for about an hour. It kept building in the glass and adding in more layers while keeping a savory quality that was irresistible.
