Grilled lemon and mixed citrus nose with chocolate liqueur and pumpkin spices. Heavy tar and raisin entry. This one is teetering between half past its prime and over-extraction. There is a charred aspect, a sour cherry skin, graphite and a clove studded orange with dried black roses and oregano. The tannins are packed like a sand castle, but the overall feel is medium.

Just didn't get it. Color pinned it as nebbiolo, but otherwise too much stew fennel and candy to figure this out
