Color is brownish red with blueberry, black cherry, blackberry and baking spice on the nose, with more of the same plus caramel in each sip. The finish is flat with no lasting flavors. Better than the earlier tasting notes indicated - this wine aged well, but won’t last another 3-5 years: drink now with moderate expectations.

.375ml bottle - Deep dark, rich red color. Nose of dark cherry and plum. Medium weight with good structure. Not much of a finish; alcohol is well integrated at this point. Merlot grape dominates this one for me. Nice effort, but definitely needs more cellar time to pull together -- Drink in 2011 or so.

Undrinkable, I wouldn't even use it for cooking. Sharp to the nose. Bitter, overly hot on the palate. $2 at Trader Joe's would have been better spent.
