  On the downhill, but still hanging in there even after being open for a couple of days. Opaque, yet still ruby in color. Tannins are fading but remain present. My favorite W2 sangio for good reasons.

  Great food wine. Plums and berries seep out of the glass over a firm earthiness with a hint of chocolate.

  Wasn't bad, and I would drink one again for the right price, but the drinking window on this is dwindling... no reason to save them.

  Not good. Thin, sour, no structure, no complexity, limp red fruit. Guess that's why they don't grow this grape in the US.

  Really nice plums and berries, thick finish with a bit of chocolate.
