Nose: warm baking spices, semisweet chocolate chips, minerals, dried dark fruit. Smells good.
Taste: good, but thinner than I expected. Medium weight. A lot more acidity than I expected too. Cassis and blackberry - and distinct cherry as time went on. Tannins have some bite, but don’t taste “green.” Good deal for the $11-12 I paid…I am not experience enough to be sure, but I do think some aging would make this really good. 89. Worth buying again.
