Gritty on the greeting, with char, plum, berry and juniper aromas. The palate is full-bodied, with nice raspberry, plum and spice flavors. Good and easy as it unfolds on the finish. Well-mannered and juicy, with a notch or two of complexity.

Sweet black plum, licorice and anise aromas are soft yet nice. The palate, however, is more clacky, with jammy, reduced flavors of syrupy berry and sappy tannins. Jammy and saturated on the finish as well; tons of berry and size, but not perfectly balanced.

Oily and blowsy smelling, with almondy aromas and a pinch of citrus. The palate is heavy and chunky, with sweet, overripe flavors of pineapple and peach. Sweet and stalky on the finish.
