Dried cherry and forest floor aromatics give way to a lean, angular palate dominated by grainy tannins. Mocha and torrefied coffee notes can't mask the fruit's decline. The structure overwhelms what little concentration remains - those powdery, drying tannins speak more to picking decisions than cellaring potential. Past its window.
