Eh. Nothing special. Fruity and dark, almost a little overblown. Good with chocolate.

1 hour decant. Clear dark red/purple appearance. Mouthwatering nose of blackberries and other dark fruit, some cedar. Similar flavors and a reasonable long, spicy finish with some tannins.

Bottle was completely off -- skunky nose, worse taste. A bit of aeration helped, but not nearly enough.
