Very nice with a chicken pesto pasta. Pretty complex, with a lite musty nose. Mild tobacco/licorice first taste with a tannic finish. Very good with food. It is nice but would not be my after dinner choice. Drink it now.

Clear Medium Light red. Medium minus intense nose, funky, earthy red cherry, no obvious new oak. Very dry earthy cherry flavours and a big tannic finish.

Cantina del Pino (San Francisco Wine Trading Company): Light color. Flowers and mint with a bit of citrus peel. Light weight, some sap. Lively, high acid, citrus tinged fruit. Quite a lot of structure for its weight-the tannic, tobacco-laced finish sneaks up on you. Needs time.

Cherry flavors throughout, light to medium nose, classic color. Drinking very well right now.

Very Good, not great... Needs time for the beauty to grow. Now, it's tight and tannic. Even with a couple of days of slow ox, it's not showing much.
