  June 18, 2011 - I liked it. Berries and a nice spiciness worked well with the pepperoni pizza. Very dry, but not much on the finish. I think slightly chilled would be a good thing.

  March 13, 2011 - OK – clean mid red appearance; fruit on nose; mid tannins; mid acid; medium body; medium length finish; very fruity. Was expecting a more substantial wine - was a bit limp.

  October 2, 2010 - Dark. Opaque. Good legs. No real nose at all. Massive dry and acidic palate. Unpleasant bitter finish. Where's the fruit and herbs? Will leave the rest of the bottle til tomorrow and add to this note. For now, not very nice stuff really.
  
  The next day. Barely better. Perhaps a little red berry on the nose. A bit softer. If not outright unpleasant, still not a good wine.
