...notes of lead pencil shavings, crème de cassis, cedar wood and fruitcake, followed by a blockbuster, rich, concentrated mouthfeel with exceptional density, sweet tannin and a long, 45- to 50-second finish.
Distinctive for the minty chocolate brownie character...a rich, expansive expression of dark berry and mocha flavors, shaded by cedary oak and finishing with firm, fine-grained tannins.
