Decanted this for 3 hours. Taste notes of raspberry jam, tobacco and cherries. and smell of jam as well. Probably could hold for a few more years, or double decant. Bold wine but strong on the alcohol. I wish I had a second bottle to try in 3-4 years

I have one more in my cellar and it will probably go fast. This is an all around good smooth wine for a $24 price point. I am definitely going to have to stock up on this one The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. It smells like strawberry, raspberry, red currant and cinnamon. It tastes like fig, strawberry, raspberry and black currant (cassis). The body is medium/full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium.

Smell of cedar and taste of black cherries. My bottle was prime now. Could maybe be cellared for another 2-3 years but drink now
