Popped this to honor the late Bill Powers who passed a few weeks ago. On the nose, this is all blackberry and pepper. But hand me some vanilla ice cream cuz this drinks like a dark dark cherry pie with a kick of spice. Totally integrated tannins. Luckily there's still a spine of acid that helps this along. Past its prime but still quaffable.
