Had after a bottle of another wine. This tasted very artificial. Smooth but quite honestly didn't show well. Nose had lots of vanilla that continued to the palate. Would not buy again based on this bottle.

First bottle I've had on our own in quite some time so I had more time to pay attention to it this time. This is a well made daily drinker. It lacked a lot of the complexity I usually desire for a weekend drink with family and a nice meal. Tasted a little artificial tonight. Very smooth and definitely a crowd pleaser when hosting a party, especially with a couple added years on it. Good for the right occasion. Tonight wasn't it.

It had a strange taste when it was first opened but rounded into a good wine.
