Dry cork after a decade in the bottle, but was able to remove. Not a complicate wine appellation blend, but plenty of fruit remains and has held up well. Consumed over ten hours. Bright ruby color with little to no oxidation, clarity good. Aromas of raspberry and forest floor, flavors of tart red cherry and blackberry compote with a short to medium finish. The fruit is somewhat youthful, but this balanced wine is nearing the end of its life, so drink up!

Pop and Poured, consumed over about an hour. A little tight but opened up nicely with time. Cherry and cotton candy on the nose cherry and a little oak on the palate. Medium tannins, Medium finish maybe a little hot. An ok wine but nothing special.

Earth and carmel smells on nose, big ripe cherry fruit flavors and smooth dry finish, very nice wine.

Popped an poured, oaky, peppery taste on the palate with a tart cherry finish. Decent wine could use time to open up maybe
