Uncorked and let slow ox for about 2 hours. Dark purple in color. Rich nose of plum, briar, and cherry essence. Medium to full on the palate upon the initial blast with fresh fruit and menthol. Clean and well delineated expression of cherry and licorice with adequate acid and grip. Lower score due to the fact that the wine tailed off quickly on the back end, and somewhat fizzled out with time in the glass. At this price juncture, I would pony up a little additional coin and go with the Tor-Kenward offerings for greater satisfaction.
