Perfectly mature! On the nose, I found dried cherry, undergrowth, dried flowers, smoke, and minerals. Feminine, resolved and earthy on the palate, graining flesh and richness with time in the glass. Dried cherry, inner floral tones and minerals saturated the senses. Leather, dried cherry and floral tones lingered long.
