Vivid ruby. Cherry, blackberry, anise and mocha on the pungent nose. Oak-spiced dark berry flavors pick up sweetness and a hint of anise with air and show very good depth. Chewy and focused on the finish, with the dark berry quality clinging with good tenacity. This drinks well now with some air, but I'd age it for at least another couple of years.
