May 7, 2017 - Dark crimson in color, this wine reveals muted black fruits, tobacco, saddle leather and black cherry on the nose. The mouth feel is medium bodied with somewhat course tannins and added dust, tobacco and spice undertones. The finish is tight with the black fruits struggling to fully come out. 13.5% abv.
Purchased for $15US, this is a well made wine that needs a thorough decant or another 1-2 years of cellar time to fully develop. This bottle struggled to open up over the 90 minutes it was open and retasted.
Imported by Soilair Selection, New York, NY.
