Aromas of nice dark berry fruit aromas, some nutty & peppery spice. Palate has array of berry flavors, licorice, cedar & herb pepper. Tannins starting to soften long finish ending with fruit & spice.

A scent of Wild blueberry, limestone, rose petals and intense raspberries. Drier on the palate. Needs a few years to soften. Tobacco. Classy.
