November 14, 2020 - Wanted decanting for 45-60 minutes, then an excellent, character rich wine.

October 7, 2013 - Not much to get excited about here. Average depth and clarity, mild aromas of strawberries and perhaps a hint of tobacco on the palate. Medium to full bodied. Rather chewy tannins and average finish. Still a decent value and a good second wine to pair with the pizza. Drink now
