Gifted bottle. Deep purple. High viscosity. Mid-aromatic with floral notes and strong cassis and black fruit. On the palate, still strong dark fruit flavors. Some small notes of cherry. 11 years old and had miles to go. Wasn’t overly tight when opened but serious tannins that hinted at another 10 years on longevity. A beautiful wine that references the hands of Benoit. Left me appreciative.

A hidden gem from Realm. This wine tastes like a combination of Absurd and Dr.Crane. Not so sweet as Dr.Crane but more enjoyable than Absurd. Only made in mags. I may give this wine 100 if not tasted together with BTK CF. Sad.
