Expensive fruit bomb in a juggernaut bottle — 9 years ago
Insanely well integrated, big, overripe jammy blackberry and cherry fruit up front is followed closely by bushels of briary herbs, tingly pepper, smoked meat, chocolate, blood, vanilla, tobacco, bergamot, blood orange, alder, saddle leather, earth, minerals, and just about everything else under the sun while somehow remaining superbly poised and balanced. A masculine juggernaut that just kept giving and giving new flavors over the course of several hours. Wowzers. — 10 years ago
