Regifted to me after gifting to a good friend a few years back. Dark garnet color, nearly to the edges. Nose of blueberry pie, dark chocolate, licorice, some cedar. Pleasant, fruity mouthfeel, with nice acidity, finishing with a dusting of cocoa powder and very well-integrated but noticeable tannins on the back end. Softness and structure. Drinking beautifully right now, but should last longer.
Good value: purchased for $46.25 from the Hartford list 12/1/2016.

Opened night before Thanksgiving (even though we were supposed to be bringing it for dinner the next day) the good news is we only drank half so we can bring the rest, the bad news is it's the only bottle we had

Unctuous fruity nose. Perfectly balanced. Drinking great. Fruity, peppery and still tannic. Great wine.

Really good. Hot wine. Needed time in the glass to calm a little. But excellent. Layers. All you want. Big. Match food appropriately.
