at first smelling like a bowl of red punch, this bottling quickly slides into dark, savory herbals, featuring a bit of five-spice blend that evolves as you sniff. on the palate, it's smooth and soothing, with blueberry and other dark blue fruits as well as anise. there is noticeable tannic structure, so this will hold well for a few more years.
