  The only thing that gives this away as a 2nd label is the ease with which it drinks today. 30 minute decant was sufficient to resolve an initial awkwardness. Modest nose keeps it from being scored higher. Very approachable palate, the highlight of which is concentrated cherry fruit flavors. Medium finish that develops into a longer one with time in the glass. Worth the price at $35. Not quite an "everyday wine", but nicely fills a gap between ordinary table wine and the big guns.
