charred aromas of shoe polish and toasty oak frame additional scents of lemon peel, blackberry, cassis and animal hide. this is on the syrupy side, with cutting acidity and fierce tannins. flavors of maple, molasses, chocolate, vanilla and coffee accent core blackberry and cassis. it's rugged, rich and ripping on the finish. drink this massive wine from 2020 through 2030.
