Sharp and showing a hint of bitterness, this kicks in with midpalate flavors of red plum and cherry. There’s some mint and vanilla evident from the 16 months in barrel, and for the price it delivers a lot of spicy, penetrating flavor.

Firm, tannic and tight, this wraps its cherry fruit in a lot of coffee and toast from the barrel aging. After that, it does a gentle fade, with some residual acidity.
