Lots of young plum and dark black tea notes on the palate. Consistent notes over 3+ hours of decanting. A bit austere still. Hold longer if wondering when to open.

Garnet red to purple in color with nice slow legs. PNP. Sweet nose of floral and black cherry. Flavors are similar but with an acidic sour cherry bite. Very dry with a medium bodied. Nice but nothing to write Cellar Tracker about ;).

This is an interesting Bordeaux blend. I'm not sure if it spent any time in barrel as there is no smoke on the nose nor onthe palate. To me it's a little tannic yet maybe a little more aging is needed. It's not a complex wine but rather a nice accompaniment with a wood grilled steak or lamb chop. It will cut the fat of the meat very well. I was hoping for more but for $20.00 how much should we expect

Getting better. Good now but shows signs of improving a couple of points in a year or two.

Still a little tight. I'll wait another year before popping the next one.
