Giant Wine Sale & Tasting at Cellar on Greene Columbia, SC 6/18/2011: This is one of those wines that does not show good in a tasting glass. At first whiff, I got a lot of rubber and road tar. Swirling did not help much. The flavors are also too closed to escape that little glass. What I did get was a lot of red cherry. Plenty of color. Medium bodied. Kind of simple with minimal tannins and just enough acid for balance.
