Color of light purple. Nose is pretty good with aldehyde, fresh berries, tobacco leaves, and wet mushrooms, and some strength of alcohol. Taste of good berries note, good sweetness and acidity, yet overpowered by bitterness. Aftertaste shows some more graphite note. I f there were no bitterness to this extent, it would’ve been amazing. — 8 months ago
