from half bottle, dry with a bit of tannin on the start. more like a pinot noir. after a half hour, any fruit remaining had burnt off. The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like raisin and mineral. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity.

from a half bottle, the cork broke so it needed to be decanted. fair amount tanin, surprised that it was a bit young on first tasting. over the next half hour, went through a bit of a funk but came back for the last sip. The wine looks violet colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like tobacco, basil and hay/straw. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity. a reasonably nice glass of wine
