    This smells like warm chocolate ganache spread over layers of vanilla buttercream and black plums. It feels loose on the palate, offering soft acidity and only a slight tug of tannin toward the chocolaty finish.

    Alluring aromas of tobacco, forest floor, smoking incense and chocolate are well defined. Supportive tannins frame its soft core, while conspicuous acids ramp up the earthy flavors. It finishes long, with a lingering note of dark stone fruit.

    Notes of spiced toast, Raisinets, hickory and prune mingle on the smoky, slightly baked nose. The flavors are concentrated and intense, but the baked quality is a little too distracting.
