It’s been years since I’ve had their Morisoli offering and wow, this 2013 is firing on all cylinders 🔥 Crème de cassis, Luxardo cherries, licorice, eucalyptus, plums, blackberries, Christmas spices cake, espresso, cocoa, and robusto cigar residue. So expressive and so delicious; the tannins are on point in this bottle 👌🏻
