Exuberant and ebullient ripe late season cherries on the nose. Smells like 15. Also lovey earth and mineral character. Palate is super ripe and rich with layers of sweet red cherry fruit and wonderful freshness. Girard nailed 15. Concentrated and deep. It doesn’t quite have the focus of 14:17:19 but it’s one of the better 15’s I’ve had. Long finish. Very fleshy .

Brilliant nose. Girard did very well in 2015. Sunshine, late season cherry, mineral, earthy, gamey and meaty. Complex and finesse driven with sappy fruit, a nice hit of opulence. Clean and balanced and very pure. So silky. Great upon pop and pour but air really sends into overdrive.

Nose is cherry perfume. Mellow but gorgeous.

Palate is cherry and cherry lipstick. Fresh. Juicy, delicious. Hint of cherry licorice.

Giraffe is a model of consistency. Never a bad bottle.

As this opens more gods cherry density. Wow.
