Picked up fruit from the bouquet just opening the bottle! Decanted for about half an hour. On the nose, there are notes of raspberry, cherry, chocolate and smoke. On the palate this was super smooth and juicy. Had a sort of chocolate covered cherry thing going on (sorry I'm not too good at describing flavors!). Perfect balance- not too dry, not too sweet. Will definitely order more. Curious to see what some cellaring will do to this, since it's already SO smooth. Recommendations said I wouldn't like this! Just goes to show you that ya' gotta try 'em for yourself.
