Opaque with magenta around the rim. Nose of plum and blueberry, with oak accents. Medium bodied, sharp blackberries, black cherries, herbs, good acid, grainy tannins that come in late, pepper, a touch of smoke, and a medium finish. Fresh and easy drinking.

I think the reviewer who gave it the 69 must have gotten a bad bottle. Mine was a nice, big, fruity steak wine that managed to be both bold and subtle. It's not one I'll make an effort to track down and buy again, but it's one that if I see an opportunity to buy, I probably will.
