Bottle courtesy of Jeremy, thanks! Hazy amber color, off white head. Nice aroma of tannins, berries, vanilla. Taste is sweet and sour oaky cherries. Delicious.

Bottle at home paired perfectly with this weeks Game of Thrones. Deep brownish amber pour with two finger head. Nose is deep brandy, cherry, and toffee. Tastes of much the same brandy but not harsh, light non offensive cherry, toffee, tobacco, leather, other red fruits, and light leaf pile. Chewy mouthfeel but nothing cloying. Really hit the spot this evening. Grimm has been putting out some winners lately IMO.
