OMG! I have avoided opening this wine because I figured it was average. We had tacos tonight and so I opened a bottle. HOLY MACKERAL! It was a fruit explosion! Dark as India Ink. Long legs and viscous. I would be satisfied just to sniff this wine, but then the taste. Wow. Very well balanced.great tannins and "pucker factor." And great fruit flavors. Really smooth,nice, long finish.

I'll probably never know how long this can ate because I love it so much it doesn't last. I would describe it as LUSH. great dark fruit, firm but smooth tannins, intoxicating nose. $49 is fair, though not cheap.

WAY overrated by WTSO! Glad I only bought three bottles. Worth the WTSO discounted price, but just barely. Very thin, okay for an average quick meal, but nothing memorable at all
