The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry and black pepper. It tastes like blackberry and cherry. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity. I was surprised with the quality since this should have been consumed 5 years ago. Very nice wine.

Excellent with Italian food! Very smooth. Not a hint of the 14.9% content. Good acidity, and a medium finish.

Pre-Hospice du Rhone 2012; 4/25/2012-4/27/2012 (Paso Robles, CA): Translucent dark garnet in the glass. Bright berry cherry nose with flavors of sweet oak and cherry on the palate. Not bad.

Nice balance of fruit and tannins.... Bouquet of clove, black cherry, and slightly earthy.
