The color is a nice shade of dark purple. The aromatics are faint hints of blackberry and dark cherry. The dark cherry continues through the palate picking up sage spice hints and some vanilla as well. The finish is very tannic with cedar and cigar box hanging on till the end. It’s good but not great.
