Had over 2 days, decanted for an hour and had 2 glasses during the evening and finished the bottle the following day without much difference in taste/nose. Thought this was bright and fresh, very good nose, cherries and strawberries. Slightly lighter in color and texture than your typical syrah, thought it had a nice velvety finish. Thoroughly enjoyed and would like to have again

Somewhat dark, almost inky in color. Strong nose on the open. Seemed a bit heavy with only subtle fruit flavors with a little spice, also there was little alcohol on the finish. We have had this as our 'table' wine for a few months not a bad option for $10 - $12.
