Someone drops a mossy cape on a half-lit stage, and in the darkness, in a little theater that you have been invited to alone, delivers a monologue about eating cherries as a teen. It should be embarrassing, but you feel at home.

Heavy on the nose lacking on the palette. perhaps an off night for my taste buds will try again soon.

Lovely nose - rich, deep, and silky - full of dark fruits, leathers, and earth. The taste is full and soft, with bright and lively highlights. Citrus notes along with rich tobacco. Delicious.

Buen aroma, huele mejor de lo que sabe. Lo hemos degustado con unos ricos calamares y un combo matador.

Grew on me after a while (from not good to just okay) -- disappointing, but I can't complain at $15/250mL
