Not much fruit note left, just little red cherry, subtle red plum, with moderate smokiness and leather in the nose. Mild tannin, silky mouthfeel. Drink now!

Overall great. Best to let it breathe for a bit at first - there was a strong tar vibe when I first uncorked it. Beyond that, a surprisingly light feel, with notes of plum and general savoryness.
