«Deep gray purple. Lots of oak spice on the nose and dark plum fruit below, but the spice takes over for now. Oak sweetness on the palate and some milk chocolate notes, both flavor and texture. Chewy but sweet tannins and lots of freshness. It’s balanced in an oaky style and has impressive length.»
