Familial flavours of a deconstructed Black Forest Cake/trifle - chocolate, custard, bright wild raspberry; redcurrant. So many other less-obvious flavour 'distractions' - mushroom pâté/duxelles, replete with a beefy accompaniment. Notes of sarsaparilla whirled into the mix. Also, an assortment of fresh red and black liquorice - 'straight out of the bag'. Mouthcoating - a confluence of tannin/acidity/oak/fruit - all joyously meshed together. A convex mid-palate that generously supports upfront palate grip and a continuum of delight all the way to lengthy, lingering finish. Truly 'alive', Upon sitting and with air, all transforms. A second revised tasting-note, however, can definitely wait. There will be ample opportunity over the next half-century!
