    A scratchy, rough nose with forced creamy oak aromas is also a bit fiery and hot. A heavy palate with surface-level oak tastes more of clove and cured beef than honest fruit. A sticky, cloying palate is creamy and overtly oaky.

    Spicy plum aromas are oaky but fail to hold firm as the nose becomes more earthy as it opens. The palate has a creamy, forced-oak feel. Flavors of wood grain, plastic and black fruit finish sweet and minty in flavor, but also lactic in feel.
