Initial note from pop 'n' pour.
70% dusty burgundy colour. The nose is very spirity but there are burnt figs punching through, although I'm not the biggest fan of this. It's not too refined in the mouth feeling quite rough. We'll be having this in a few hours so I'm hoping this decant will help. An initial dark fruit palate with a lingering high cocoa percentage, dark chocolate which gives bitterness that I'd rather not have (I'm a basic chocolate eater; milk and low percentage dark). This lasts a good while in the mouth with a decent heat to pair.
Shall report back later.
