That classic chocolate nose with additional complexity and palate of a wonderfully aged Merlot. From Magnum. Just a bit orange around the edges and definitely at peak. 39 bottles left in CT...Don't wait.

We got lucky and Victor cracked this open for us to try at the Vienna Vintner. Wine was dark crimson red with brownish edges. Lots of dark fruits on the nose. Dark berries on the palate, smooth and velvety. Moderate tannins (7/10) and moderate body. Definitely has the structure of a Napa Bordeaux varietal (strong and thick) and moderate plus finish.
