Deep garnet-brick colored, the 2007 Mr Black’s Concoction GSM gives a wonderfully complex and mature nose of fruits of the forest compote, dried mulberries and Chinese dried plum over potpourri, baking spices, lavender and preserved mandarin peel. Full-bodied, rich and opulent in the mouth, it has lots of spice and dried berry flavor layers supported by crisp acid and silky tannins. The finish is long, with just a touch of heat coming through. Drinking beautifully now, it should keep to 2016+. Importer: Ronnie Sanders, Vine Street Imports, Philadelphia, PA; www.vsimports.com
