(aged for four years in used American oak barrels) Bright ruby. Displays potent aromas of ripe red berries, candied rose, coconut and pipe tobacco, with a smoky mineral element contributing vivacity. Juicy, expansive and alluringly sweet, offering deeply concentrated Chambord, cherry-cola, mocha and floral pastille flavors that become more lively on the back half. Shows superb power and delineation on a strikingly long, spice-laced finish that's framed by subtle, slow-building tannins. - Josh Raynolds
