dry, thin and dusty at first. after an hour in the decanter the wine opened up and showed more fruit and acidity. i really like the balance and secondary flavors. still some mild tannins but its showing a little heat at the end telling me that its probably slightly past its peak. still a great wine for the price.

Poured through Vinturi™ into a wide-mouthed container, let sit for a short time, then re-bottled to take to a BYOB. Nice, but maybe near the end of its drinking window. Medium-bodied, tannins present, almost a "sourness". Short to medium finish.

RussK CG Wine Event here. My fav mystery wine. Cherry cola, firm tannins in the finish. Buy some for under $25.
