Opened it 2 hours before drinking, still had fruit on the nose, reasonably complex , nice finish, very smooth, a mineral taste , I enjoyed it. Excellent wine for the price

I think this wine offers a great value for the money at $29.00. it's got depth and complexity usually seen in a more expensive wine. Secondary characteristics of oak and leather give way to dark fruit on the mid-palate and finish. My only criticism would be that it seems to fall apart fast....opened nicely in about 45 min....drank well for about 90 minutes....then began to fade.
