Wine was past prime, even though stored around 55. Cork was popped with a cherry red glycerine like stain. Nose out of the bottle was cherry sweet tart. The wine poured rather medium bodied, not very thick. Initial palate was red cherry and some spice with a dry component towards the end and a very woodsy gritty finish. Really was a pleasant wine at first but the bottle oxidized rather rapidly. Past its prime. NR rating.

this is a slightly above average wine. first sip was not great but got better as it opened up. good fruit and oak with a nice finish.
