On the nose: bursting from the glass are perfumed notes of stewed red fruit, wet forest floor, worn leather, eucalyptus, herbaceous, little funky earth. Taste: silky smooth savory wine with dried red cherry, spice, espresso, loamy earth and a graphite cocoa nice long finish. YUM! always a treat drinking aged Seavey and this has aged gracefully.
