  "Non-Baller" Wines, Take 4: the nose smelled a bit green with underripe plums and cherries. the fruit was spicy, but the greeness got to me.

  Still drinking well. Smooth and balanced. Very good without food. Not much heat, mild tannins.

  Color is very deep red. Not a strong nose, some red fruit and a touch of earth. On the palate the entry is plum and dark fruit. Mid palate brings a nice shot of heat and that carries through to the finish. Light tannins, nice balance. Nice by itself and good with food as well. I would pair it with a good steak if I had another bottle.

  I didn't get much out of this, little fruit and went just ok with spinach ravioli and didn't add to the Sees chocolate experience. Got more alcohol in the taste than expected after an hour decant that didn't change.
