Quite ripe, with macerated blackberry, dark plum and fig fruit flavors that meld nicely with black licorice and sweet tobacco notes through the toasty finish. Has good energy to balance the overt style. Drink now through 2030. 1,500 cases made.

Ripe black fruit, dried coconut, walnut and bark on the nose. Full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Ripe and dense with a spirited finish. Slightly old school but attractive and intense. Try after 2023.
