Top Notes For

9.1

Nose has ripe blackberry, black cherry liquor, (light) ripe strawberry with lingering spice notes.

Palate has ripe black cherry, light barrel toast notes, dark chocolate shavings, ripe blueberry with touches of sweetness and bitterness on the medium finish.

A decent bottle, but not as much of a standout as the 2010 vintage. Still years to go on this 2011, mild tannins remain, future bottles can be 2021+ without concern.
