  12/18/2016 - beej Likes this wine:

  Sweet chocolate manure on the nose ( using my imagination).
  Unctuous mouthful requiring a great deal of oral agitation.
  Jammy blackberry and stewed prunes up the nose prior to finish.
  Lengthy finish for a cheap village wine.
  Still going strong.

  This should have been drunk more than five years ago...it's a long story. However, even thought the cork came out in pieces, the wine was not oxidized at all. Dark purple in the glass. I don't know the blend, but I think I tasted Grenache and Syrah. Nicely resolved (soft) tannins, blackberry fruit, and some acidity to boot. The wine was in surprisingly good shape - blind I would have guessed it was a 2005 or 2009.
