April 8, 2018 - 80 on a drinkability/enjoyable scale. I liked it after the pop with rare beef and mashed taters. Improved nicely during the meal and finished well. I like to get a case of these and drink over 5 yrs maybe. When you feel it slippin away, put it down quickly. But could end up with a nice surprise.
December 22, 2017 - Super full body. Smooth. Not fruit
November 26, 2017 - Deep red, clear. Herbal nose. Full body, intense flavor, smooth texture, soft tannins but well structured, extra hot mouthfeel, long aftertaste.
Sweet but balanced by acidity, tannins and alcohol.
Jammy, dense, delicious red fruit flavors, plums. Despite being so big it went well with turkey, at least the dark meat.
Amazing value, had I known I’d have bought a case.
March 20, 2017 - Very good taste especially with caramel. Would buy again. Drank it cold.
March 14, 2017 - Purple in color, with pink and orange hues along the edge. High alcohol (13.5%) with moderate- viscosity. Medium+ tannins. Paired very well with parmesan cheese, bread, peperoni, and oregano balsamic/olive oil dip. Moderate length of flavor. Later finished drinking with corned beef (not as good pairing) and braised cabbage (awful pairing). 2 bottles purchases. Second bottle needs some time to clear out soften out tannins.
The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.
March 7, 2017 - Very tanniny after sip
Good with fatty foods, steak and cheese
February 17, 2017 - Medium garnet color, red hues towards the meniscus. Scents of very ripe red fruits (strawberry, raspberry) and heavy cassis. Aeration allows some vanilla and coconut scents to come through. Palate is very heavy on the fruit, almost juice-like. Waited 30 minutes and more oak flavors and vanilla came through. Lacks mid-palate flavors and depth. Length is moderate, but entirely fruit with almost no other flavors. 11.5/20
January 22, 2017 - Thin sharp harsh hot
