I was surprised to see the comments on the harsh tannis from the other tasters. I tried a bottle this past weekend and thought the tannins were very soft...nice black fruit upfront soft on the backend. Worked extremely well paired with the Moussaka we had for dinner. I did decant for 1 hour.

Nice bottle..very pretty wine with silky tannins and nice fruit...decanted for 1 hour...bit of acid on the first taste then softened nicely
