May 15th, 2024Pale ruby in color; cherries, raspberries, and baking spices on the nose; medium plus acidity; low tannins; tastes like strawberries, black cherries, crushed gravel, and a hint of vanilla with a long finish. Nellie says it's ok. I like it. Better after decanting for 30 minutes. Tastes a little sweet. I think there's some residual sugar, but it may just be the fruit flavors. It's definitely a fruit bomb.

Dark garnet color. Smells like cherry Life Savers. Sweet cherry, blackberry, raspberry, plum, baking spice, caramel and cola flavors with a strong note of imitation vanilla extract on the finish. Way over Oaked. (Like liquid smoke was added) No noticeable tannins. Not a fan. Revisited eleven months later. No improvement.
