Tart cherry and earth upon opening. Brie cheese and Gouda cheese bring out the bright fruit. Swiss intensifies the earthiness. Spice, soil, and dried fruit on the nose. Opens up lovely, with a lengthening smooth finish.

Cherry and not a long finish. Opened up better toward the end so I would let it breath.
