    July 25, 2011 - must have had a flawed bottle - tasted like questionable homemade wine. overripe, turpentine and other chemical aromas were very pronounced, followed by a strange, disjointed, pruny sensation on the tongue. undrinkable.

    June 26, 2011 - Still drinkable. Overall impression - cherry bomb. Big explosion of cherry immediately on the palate. Not my kind of wine.

    November 25, 2010 - Assumed this would be well past its peak but was pleasantly surprised that it has held up. Plum on the nose. Dark jam flavor with a syrupy finish. Not my favorite but enjoyable nonetheless.

    October 5, 2005 - What happened to this? A bottle consumed a year and a half ago was pretty good and at least contained fruit and structure. This one was dilute, void of fruit, and a total mess.

    September 3, 2005 - This is an unremarkable wine that is just simply drinkable. Super dark, almost too dark when the wine hits the glass. Has a funky nose to begin with but begins to open up somewhat with air. Some hints of berries and fruits, but overall a very backward wine. Not awful but certainly not worth the $35 price tag I paid for it.
