Community Tasting Note

  October 29, 2012 - ok...opened first bottle and agreed with many other tasting notes; dried out, dusty, kinda like an old amarone that had lost its hold on life...
  so i corked the bottle after only pouring a half a glass and was determined to return the entire case.
  three days go by and i need a red wine to cook with. i thought this wine wouldn't be bad to cook with,
  but to be sure i poured a splash in a glass and drank it...and WOW. the difference was profound. this wine had taken on some body,
  a light richness, some sweet tannins, and dark stone fruit, with black cherry notes, and it was sooooo smooth!!!
  I couldn't, and didn't stop sharing this story with friends until the bottle was finished. So give this one a chance. It's fairly cheap,
  and worth either cellaring, or decanting for a...day? 2 days? have fun with it regardless
