  this is a Cabernet Franc / Merlot blend that has gone all leathery and smoky with a mega-dose of barnyard that just never mellows. I'm out.

  Big and dark. Has thrown some sediment but still has enough tannic backbone to continue in cellar for a couple more years. A very intersting wine.

  There was nothing that I liked about this wine, from the foul barnyard nose, to the green character. The best I could say is it was drinkable, but $30 for this wine is a bad joke. I'd agree that more decanting might help if you happen to have a bottle and cannot get rid of it, but it will never be a next time for me.

  Too acidic, nice nose, red fruited, but too austere and bitter tannins don't help.
