  Nice but bit tired and lacking length - herbal aromas - slight notes of iron and blood

  Opened the night before. Good structure w earth at back palate. Still tannic but nose rather muted.

  Ruby in color and crystal clear. Slightly bricking. Light bodied with tart cherries, strawberries. Medium finish. Not complex but enjoyable.

  Bright and fresh with griottes, cherries, smooth, all tannins resolved. A bit light bodied as far as complexity, but is quite long on the palate which means this wine drinks above the rating.

  Burg Dinner with Friends...and LaTache (RPM Italian - Chicago IL): Good black fruit but certainly one-dimensional in the context of this flight. Slightly bitter on finish. Oh well.
