black currant forward, hollow mid palate, finish is decent but not complex. Maybe it will get better with age?

Rich cacao and vanilla, deep and dark fruits, layered with spicy oak. Cinnamon maybe? Thick, pasty, and strong.

A green, general now on the nose. Fruit is a little bland. A little creaminess on the palate.

Out if the bottle it seemed watered down so I decanted the second half for a few hours. Boom! Flavor came out and great taste. Decant this vintage and you'll get the full-bodied flavor this brand is famous for.
