I opened the bottle last night and had two glasses and am finishing the bottle about 12 hours later. The wine has a medium ruby color in the heart and gradients out very nicely. Nice medium oily legs that add to the great color. No sediment. Dusty pomegranate and cherry in the nose. Dark wet soil and maybe a bit of rose. Nice and tight with very light tannins. Sweet pomegranate and cherry notes with bit of earth. A bit young and I can predict the intensity of flavors in two years time.

Pepper and spice nose. Grass, cherry, and oak with a spicy finish. Not much depth or interest and too much oak for me.

Deep burgundy in color - almost black. Beautiful bouquet of black cherry, blueberry, and strawberry. Lingering smokiness and a bit of tar. Very nice!

Excellent burgundy. No wait! Oregon Pinot for only $30? Even better!
