Big flavors competing for first chair, but all playing at equal volume. Cassis, blueberry, eucalyptus, saddle leather, cacao nibs, vanilla, and sweet tobacco. All this with poise, balance, and such a velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and laden with Ludens. Very good!

Elegant from the start. Plums, currants and dark cherries tempered by smoke. This is followed by dates and fig, touch of licorice. Medium tannins carry the finish with almost no acidity.
