Nose: Earthy fruitiness and chocolate is what first comes to mind (and nose). Mustard seeds, rhubarb, tomato plant and a softly acidic oakiness (which is delightful, by the way - although I realize it might not sound that way).

Taste: Creamy, rich and full bodied. Deep and earthy fruitiness again. Vanilla. Fruity hard candy. Ripe plums.

Finish: Medium to long finish. Continues as it started, but there is a soft oakiness to it now. Also nuts, tomato plans and cut grass.

Comment: Delightfully earthy fruitiness.
