Dark, rich, deep plummy fruit on the nose with an element of Chinese five spice - hints of pepper and oak on the nose. Smells heady but also quite punchy. Really highly fragrant and scented - almost off putting and also hints at high alcohol. Dark and bold, this is intense from the get go, so tannic completely filling the mouth with flesh and some dry chakiness but there's also lots of caramel, vanilla and oak elements that distract from the fruit purty and sense of finesse. I loved this last year, but this feels a touch clunky.
