The bouquet is intense, peppery and full of spiced fruit and chocolate like characters. Well balanced and exhibiting rich plummy characters, the palate has enormous richness and depth of flavour and finishes with fine wood tannins. Thoroughly scrumptious is this wine, it's fleshy and cherry-like, still sweet, yet refreshingly acidic, piecrust-like with savoury elements and reams of fruit mince, garnished with cedary vanillin seasoning and sweet peppery tar. Lengthy maturation in new American oak has resulted in a smooth, elegant wine of great depth and complexity. Suggested food? Even at this stage of maturity, Brown label is best suited to an aged and tender, well marbled sixteen ounce porterhouse.
