Nice wine...nose of strawberry...some strawberry on the palate, but lots of spice...decanted for a few hours, which helped take some of the heat off...good for the price

Opened at Tina and Bro's. Needed air or bottle time. Was a bit hot and unstable at first. After 30m or so of time in the glass things it was a lot more approachable. Cherry and spice flavors. Still hot on the finish. Seems like it can be good but needs more time.

Seems over the hill. Fruit diminished and a lot of heat on the nose.

Med-full body with rich, dark fruit. Long finish with bramble and plum skin.

Needs time. Big and hot for a bit, but decanting and time helped the fruit come out.
