A riper liqueur-like nose features aromas of black cherry, poached plum, anise and a whiff of exotic tea. The delicious medium-bodied flavors aren't quite as dense though they too possess a lovely mouthfeel on the dusty, youthfully and austere yet sneaky long finish that could also use better depth. This should age well but be approachable after only 5-ish or so years of bottle aging.  Burghound 90-92
