On the nose, black olive, stewed black plum and berry fruit, turned soil and roasted game at jus with a fair amount of oak. Dark and opaque in the glass, it's a feel garnet, nearly chocolate brown with a crimson rim. Loaded with sediment. Still some strong acid remaining. Lots of dried leaves, cigar tobacco and stewed prunes. Aromas and favors of tomato skins and leaves. Very woody and roasty. Not much fruit remaining. Past it's time. Avoid.

A fruity mass produced wine. It's pleasant but nothing special. No complexity or depth, but what can you expect for a $9 bottle. Drink now-2007.
