Tasted by Mike Supple - 09 Jan 2009
Dark maroon core with a garnet rim. Prune and dried cherries with strawberry licorice and a cinnamon hint. Smooth entry on the palate. Soft with black cherry flavors and a hint of mocha on the finish.
This needs to be consumed immediately - starting to taste old.
