  April 3, 2016 - Second night. Drinking *after* homemade jerk rubbed chicken. Wine is deep red with great mouth feel and strong tannins. Dark fruit,maybe a touch bitter in the finish, but delicious to my taste. It was much more subdued the first night. So a good decant will help. I also think this will last a while longer. I think I have 2 more but I miss labeled them after buying them in the winery.
