Popped and poured. Nose of black currant, leather, mint, black berry. On the palate, blackberry, leather, green pepper, spice. Finished with smooth tannins and slight acidity. Can't remember what I paid as this was BCT but I think it was less than $20. At that price the value is good. Drink soon.

We were very impressed with this wine. For a wine with a "drink by" date of 2010, this wine was still full of aroma and flavor. Very pleased.

The fruit has faded a bit but still a nice bottle. Very dark, black fruits, a little too much alcohol on the finish. Tannins have blended nicely.
