TASTING NOTE: A perfumed nose of savory/minty notes unleash a rich and robust river of tangy pie cherry and black currant entwined with dark bittersweet chocolate coating the palate with gusto. It's medium-plus weight with generous mouthfeel and long finish that's garnished with persistent purity of fruit and oodles of charm.
