First sniff smelled like plastic-soap, but that gave way to brown sugar-cherry-leather layers. Front palate really sharp acidity of ruby grapefruit, underripe strawberry, with a mid palate of leather, smoke, cherry fruit leather, and a little green pepper/herbal quality with a hint of pencil lead on a relatively short finish.
