Man the previous tasting notes are tough on this one. Wow, maybe the time is right and it's just hitting its stride. We had an expressive bottle that showed well with Pnp. Full, open aromatics but still on the dark side, followed by rich dark fruiting on the taste. Very tasty. Packed. Would be worth decanting for 3 hrs to see if it opens more. Nice show Zach.

Decanted for 30 minutes. Served with turkey/pork meatballs in a red sauce appertizer.
Cloudy brick red wine. Expressive nose of strawberry, honey, and little funk. Light but smooth mouth feel with balanced acid and soft tannins. Drinking very nicely. Definite steal for $20.

PnP. Sweet tobacco, Leather, Red fruit, slightly vegetal nose. Soft feminine wine that mimics a right bank Bordeaux. Nice wine for $20 that is drinking very well right now.
