Medium garnet color. Limited nose. Earth fairly dominant on the palate with notes of spice and cedar. A bit muddier than I expected with some Shiraz like characteristics.

This wine got beet up by the competition of the night. The only thing I could think of is it tasted like Flintstone vitamins. Not a big fan of it even for the price.

It was up against some unfair competition that definitely hurt its chances of a proper review, but I was not at all impressed with this. Weak nose that actually exudes hints of stale cheese or even like athletes foot smell. Bad news so far for this wine. However, on the palate it opened up a bit more fruit which was not overly impressive, but it was decent. I would have given this 87-88 if it didn't smell so bad. Not such a fan of this wine, and would definitely give it a pass.

Just gets better with time. I wish I had purchase 5 cases of this instead of 1.
