There is plenty going on here, at close to 15.8 % alcohol the nose has been afforded an expansive array of plum and back cherry fruit, with influence of spice and a touch of brine and olive. The palate is fully ripe, with mouthfuls of plum and blackberry; acidity and tannins are there but can't quite temper the ripeness of the fruit. Finish sees a sweetness of plum with Christmas cake like spice and good length.
