Went with a 10 yr old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon, which may have added more "depth" to it. The Bourbon and Dubonnet complemented each other. Bourbon was up front and the Dubonnet present at the finish. Cranberry was not very prominent. I can see this more as a fall season type cocktail ( I may add a little bit of Allspice Dram for more of a fall feel), but this was actually very enjoyable as listed.

Balanced but lacks depth. Garnish is key.

Lovely refreshing cocktail for a warm summer night.
