Wow, found this is LLS for $19 today. PnP. Nice strong cherry flavor balanced with a little acid and very little oak. Would not wait to much longer with this. If I swing by the store again I will pick up the other bottle. Nice way to start the WE. Nice QPR

Nose is blackberry, pepper, rose petal, and wood. Flavors are blackberry, dark cherry, pepper, and oak. Nice tannins, but too acidic for our tastes. Finish is decently long, if a bit rough. And this after decanting the wine for over an hour. CellarTracker says to drink by 2011, so maybe it's just past it's prime.

Very tasty. This really came to life after about 90 minutes. Wonderful dusty tannins and hints of spicey chocolate. Nice texture and lengthy, balanced finish. Paired really nicely with gourmet cheese steaks. Recommended.

Dark in color. Ample tannins. Very fruit forward with dried mission fig and ripe bing cherry notes. Substantial length.

Hints of green. Nice cherry. Lively and quite good across the palate. Very good for $19.99
