Online tasting note for reference:

Nose:
First impact is with dark chocolate, then a great mix of red fruit, juicy and fresh. Black prunes, fresh and juicy, again fresh ripe figs. There is also a scathing side, with burnt caramel, creme brule. Aniseed, rhubarb, black tea, damp wood, a bit of nutmeg and beeswax.

Palate:
again the absence of alcohol is impressive, leaving all the space to a compact and hyper-intense body. Gorgeous, again. So chocolate and eucalypt, red fruit and rhubarb, orange and tamarind. The tannins are more herbal, green, but without ever getting to be too much.

Finish:
Long, opened by cigar smoke; fresh fruit stands still, then dark chocolate and some biscuits, with an unexpected malty note.
