After my first positive experience with this wine, I bought more and the second bottle had overwhelming oak flavors...coconut and vanilla. Tried a third bottle and it was much more subtle and tasty like the first. Very odd but just wanted to come back to this one and note the bottle variation.

I'm guessing this was flawed. Lots of green bean, asparagus and sulfur (geranium taint?) Medium-full bodied with some deeply hidden black currant behind all that green funk.

great value. tannins are smooth and integrated, dark fruit, long finish. not overly complex but good wine nonetheless. 30 min decant
