Dark and brooding ruby color. Aromas of plum, eucalyptus (intense) and vanilla. Palate is lush with black/blue berry fruit, plums, dark chocolate and roasted meat. Long dusty/oaky finish and smoothed out tannins. Full bodied and quite concentrated. Powerful! Thank you, John B!

Jul 4th, 2023So fine and sophisticated. Not what I was expecting. Everything in balance with the American oak not overt and overpowering like I often find. Really lovely Friday night drink.
