"Brown brick red color. Aromas and flavors of cherry and rose, sweaty saddle leather, pipe tobacco, and potpourri with baking spices with a velvety, tart, bone-dry medium-to-full body and a warming, complex, long finish with accents of cherry and fig, leather and rose, mushroom, and cigar box and black tea with coating, grippy, firm, drying tannins and light oak flavor. Very, very good now but needs some decanting to help integrate the tannins and show off the fruit; this should be splendid in 6 to 10 years." - Tastings.com
"Notes of baked cherries and red plums with dried citrus peel, dark spices and bark. Medium- to full-bodied with steady acidity and dusty tannins. Juicy and racy with some earthy undertones on the finish." - James Suckling
