Very bright and fresh for its age. On the juicy side it could use a bit more depth of fruit. A very nice drink for the price and if its current condition is any indication of the aging curve it has several years to go at least.

We loved the first few bottles we had of this, but the last two have not been quite as good. Noticed the dairy smell previously mentioned along with quite a bit of oak. The fruit is good and it has a decent finish. For $10 it's a pretty good buy.

nice garnet color. aromas of fruit with a slight dairy smell, some eucalyptus and menthol and lots of oak. Dark fruit flavors of plum and cherry with hints of vanilla. decent mouthfeel and finish.
