Amber color with an olive cast. Complex aromas of bbq rub, curry leaves, olives, chocolate, leather, and nuts with a supple, fruity-yet-dry medium-to-full body and a creme brulee, coriander, cinnamon, epazote, and peppery pickling spice finish. A rambunctious flavor ride that's oddly reminiscent of añejo tequila.
