Aromas take time to rev up; following seven minutes of air contact, the dormant bouquet begins to emit muted scents that include breakfast cereal, light toffee and grapes. Palate entry is moderately oily, sharp, astringent and cereal-like; by midpalate, there's more integrated, bittersweet flavors of old wood and oak resin, but also boiled cabbage, tired peat and deep-roasted malt. Concludes bitterly and hot in an astringent, resiny fashion.
