This is always a good value and the 2009 is giving some unique aromas of mesquite smoke and diesel, with rich dark berries up front, a fairly thin middle but a good berry finish over fine tannins.

I had this after dinner on 12/16/11. It had a big, ripe and oaky bouquet of smoke, cassis, black cherry, licorice, pepper and spice aromas. The palate was big, ripe, smooth and pleasant with flavors that followed the nose. It’s decent for the price.

- Ruby color with medium forming legs and aromas of cherry, licorice anise and blackberry. It's balanced and has flavours of cherry, hazelnut and chocolate with a medium/full body. Polished texture with a medium finish - Nice nose, beautifully made, not complex but an incredible value....
