Burst aroma of dark fruit. Immediate bold upfront dark fruit with a peppery middle and little back. Excellent.

Very well balanced and smooth. Dark currant and black fruit flavors. Easy to drink and more sweet than dry but still medium in that regard. Interesting earthy flavors as well.

Sweet plum taste that lingers nicely on the pallet. Finishes very smoothly.

Peppery! Good nose, short finish. Lighter fruit than expected.
