Wow, was I disappointed. Note I may have had a bad bottle. I almost think I had to have had a bad bottle, because they are a well known producer and this wine was just plain bad. I'll try again at some point, perhaps waiting for the next vintage. The wine had little fruit, was way too "hot" (i.e. alcoholoic), and not a pelasure to drink. I've had corked wines, it wasn't corked, but something was definately off.

Even after some age, delicious. More mellow than before, surprising was able to age a bit.

For a $15 wine (when purchased), the wine was very pleasant. Nothing blockbuster here, or overwhelming, just a nice wine to drink with a simple meal
