Friday, April 15, 2005 - Dark purple in the glass. First pour had an obnoxious sulphuric scent, blowing off to leave a sweaty edge (the closest I've come to using "gym sock" in a tasting note!) finally (thankfully) after a half hour or so having just a scent of cedar with a hint of gunpowder. Medium-full body, with strong flavor of cherries; the fruit tastes sweet, but there's also a citrusy acidity, and slight tannins. Medium finish, of the same cherry flavor. The good news is, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be from the aromas. But overall the wine seemed both monochromatic and disjointed. C
