Color - Deep Garnet with a hint of ruby on the edges. Nose - Cherries, Berries, not real big, subtle. Palate - Dry, Dusty Cedar and earthy which overpowers the light fruit. Tannic late in finish, Old World Style. 24 hours later the harsh dusty cedar and earthiness has dissipated yielding a more fruit forward palate improving the drinkability of the wine.

Big, lots of fruit and tanins and very enjoyable. Decanting would have been a good idea. I’ll come back for my second and last bottle in five years (maybe)

Very good. Drank it up in one night. Aerated first. Got better as time went on too. Dry and a bit metallic. Some sediment but not much.
