Little to no nose (but maybe I'm somewhat sick). Spicy, alcoholic, tannins. Cloves, black pepper. Medium long finish. Pleasant, interesting for someone as ignorant as me.

Very soft aroma of dark cherries. Thick rich chewy dark cherries up front. A dry plum cherry middle then a quick finish. BUT then a lingering hint of fruit on the palate.
