Decanted for about an hour then had with pork butt, cranberry bean and kale stew. Ripe berry nose, bold light red fruit, pleasantly bracing tannin with coffee and vanilla notes. An excellent New World rendition of the Bordeaux blend. Not sure that it justifies the price of this wine (about $25 or $30 back in 2007) but certainly an enjoyable bottle.

Agree with the others. Overripe/bad...whatever. It's obvious that something went wrong with the process. Pitiful attempt.
