“Cola, tar, licorice, and a lot of spicy notes. Black cherries and savory leather and meaty undertones. Dried roses and a hint of game come through. Full body with good fruit concentration and velvety tannins. The orange-like acidity is juicy and integrated. Good, licorice aftertaste. Just a little warming on the finish. Drink or hold.” – 95 pts by James Suckling
