Opens with something akin to a hickory smoke. It's certainly deep, dark and resinous. Pruney, a little residual Plum - the 'Basket Dried' refers to some rack drying to concentrate the flavours.

Black depths, firm and powdery tannin. Something like licorice running in threads across the palate. Certainly packs a punch by way of the depth and intensity of flavour. 92
