Really nice. Rich, raisins could fast the 48 months in French oak. Should have decanted.

Perhaps, even after 9 years, thus was drunk too early, but I'm disinclined to think so. This is still potent. Deep purple color, medium body, a little too much oak... menthol and eucalyptus are the predominant flavors. Subtle, this is not.

Deep nose, fruit notes and cedar, dark complexion. Tannic but not overly so, medium finish. Given everything else, I'm surprised the body isn't denser than it is. This will last a little longer.
