The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas that start with hints of plum and black cherry followed by aromas of violet, vanilla, blueberry, tobacco, chocolate, cinnamon, licorice, menthol and mushrooms. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum and black cherry.
