nearly seven years after harvest, it remains lively and vital. pointed aromas of lemony oak, pencil lead and cassis are classy and a touch earthy. this is balanced in feel, but with penty of gas in the tank. roasted, warm flavors of berry, plum, spice, herbs and pepper finish firm, with cocoa and nutmeg notes that introduce secondary tobacco and earth accents. drink through 2019.
