On the nose, raisin, tannic grape skin, barley and a slight syrupy sweetness, I’m guessing on account of the dessert wines. The first sip was a tad thin, but the development and the finish came on strong. I got a nice blueberry danish on the midpalate and a rich red fruit finish that lingered for over a minute. With a few drops of water the arrival gets much more complex. I’m getting cinnamon and ginger cookie, followed by a cream cheese pastry-type of note, then the lovely fruity finish.
