"Inky violet. Smoky black raspberry, cassis and kirsch aromas exhibit remarkable power, with an exotic coconut quality adding complexity. Deep, sweet and velvety, offering remarkably deep, weighty dark fruit flavors and a sweet mocha character. Mouthfilling, densely packed and exotic, displaying an explosive array of mocha-accented berry liqueur flavors on the long, spicy finish. This is already a show-stopper."
