Darker than the 05 which seems to be more red berry focused and not has big as the 2002. This wine exhibits both red and black berries showing off it's elegance on the silky mid palate and finishes with earthy notes and approachable tannins. There is an overall slight green pepper in this wine that doe not take away from the ripe fruits but adds a touch of complexity. Highly underrated and under the radar from many wine lovers.

At 9 bucks this is a steal. Ripe dark fruits lead to a dirty soil earthy component which expands generously over the palate. The balance between earthy and fruity is well played here. A really interesting texture on the mid palate shows complexity and depth that in my book bumps up the score out of the average zone. 88 plus points

Bright red fruits with a good amount of acidity. For the price, I would not buy again. I think this will benefit from a little more bottle time.
