Wednesday, December 5, 2012 - The cork on this bottle was completely soaked, but it opened with a pop and didn't seem to affect the wine. The nose on this wine is very dark & complex- blackberry, red & black licorice, a bit of meat, leather & smoke. The flavors are quite meaty/smoky, along with red/dark fruit, a spicy midpalate and an oak-driven finish. My mouth is watering from the acidity, and the finish is medium+ with noticeable tannins. All that said, it is quite approachable now with a bit of air but should easily last 3-5 more years.
