Thornhaven Evolution 2008

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMenthol, black olive, cedar, tobacco, coffee, vanilla, peppery, light barnyard aromas. Dry, tight, fresh, full palate with some gritty tannin. Coffee, chocolate, cedar, minty, vanilla, tobacco leaf, tea and cherry jam flavours. Very youthful and oaky now, should improve with 2-4 years aging but the artificial cork might be limiting.Tasted: 06 November 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
