Jul 4, 2009 750ml bottle acquired in trade with bu11zeye (thanks!). GUSHER alert!!!! This one gushed all over my office floor. Poured all head, and I mean all head. Took a while and settled into a medium and muddy amberish/brown color. Aromas of woodiness/oaky, ginger, other spices, some dark fruits (dark cherries), and grapes. Tastes of the same woody/oak, spices, lighter vanilla, and some dark fruiits. Thinner body and somewhat flat body.
