Almond, cherry, and a bit of a mineral thing I can't place. A rather typical nose, rather intense. The palate is a model of balance: a wonderful sour cherry radiates throughout the entire palate. A good width with a thick matter, especially on the sides. A very smooth mouthfeel which reminds me of velvet. Some sweetness too, especially in mid palate, just before some drying yet gentle tannins which kick off a very fruity finish with those almond and sour cherry notes. A slight bitterness can be found in the end too. This is a good effort, I like it!
