Dark ruby color. Alas, this bottle was slightly corked. However, there was a nice juiciness to this wine, with red fruits. Fairly dense tannins. Seemed like it would be a mid 80's wine.

Tasted November 11, 2006 at a retail tasting. Opened and served in a Reidel Restaurant Magnum glass. Ruby to garnet color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Tight nose giving way to a little perfume, violets and mixed red fruits. Flavors of Bing cherries, cherries, red licorice and some currants. Medium acidity, tannins and body. Drink over the short to midterm.

Fair quality Rosso. Maybe a bit slick and too modern. Look on the vright side - you can't make anything wrong with this well produced evergreen.

Decanted about 2 hours. Cherry, red currant, red plum, smoke, chewy. Firm tannins but not overpowering. Good value. Will be buying more.
