Opened and decanted for a an hour. Nice purple in color. Somewhat closed on the nose, did get hints cherries. On the palate you notice a fruity aspect. Hints of cherries, currants, plum and some coffee. Medium level of acidity and tannins, well balanced. The finish was medium and the texture was chewy.

Raspberry red in color. Medium glass cling. On the the nose, damp earth and spices. On the palate, black currant, cinnamon and plum. Silky smooth tannins, medium weight in the mouth. Overall, an 86 based on quality to price ratio.

Had subdued aromas, but faint black cherry. The taste was also a bit "thin", but mildly fruity, not tannic, and not hot with alchohol. The finish was probably the best part of this wine, with lingering notes of plum and cherry.
