(Bottled 2021, 131 g/l RS, 10.46 g/l TA.) Good to great clarity, ~25 SRM. This smells sweet with a funky VA candy aroma. It is definitely musty as well, more of a closet than a cellar. Finally, I smell Luxardo cherry liqueur. This has wonder sugar sweetness in the wine tasting of fig and date, with a great finish. If it wasn’t for the mustiness, this would probably score even higher. 95 points.
