  March 3, 2019 - According to CT it should have been consumed by 2009. We just opened it and it was very good. I was surprised, it had great color, good nose and finish. Even inexpensive wines can last if properly stored and when drank, can taste a lot better than their initial rating.

  July 25, 2014 - Oaky - Decanted and drank over 2 days, with some black fruit plum bluebeerry somewhat bitter lots of heat. This isn't bad, it's just not very good.

  February 8, 2011 - Very nice nose with blueberries and soft oak coming through. Soft mouthfeel, fine grit tannins. A little hollow on the mid palate and just a touch bitter on the finish but overall a good wine and at $15 a pretty excellent value.

  October 15, 2009 - Exceedingly simple wine. Old Bing cherries and milk chocolate on the nose, pretty much the same on the palate, with a little bit of cola. No acid or tannins at all. Not unpleasant, per se, but imbalanced and not something I would drink again.
