Palate- raspberry, plum,boysenberry, high fine tannin. Long finish with smoke. Something falls a bit short for me.

Nose: red cherry, blueberry, blackberry, licorice/rosemary
Long finish lingering cedar, slightly bitter alcohol.
Cherry camphor, slight bitter alcohol in mid, tight grippy long lasting tannins. Flavor drops off mid way, feels like part of it disappeared.
