  After reading other reviews, I decanted for 1 hour after pouring through a finer. Cherry and smoke on the nose. Very light body, bordering on thin. Nothing wrong with this wine, but no reason to buy again. Probably waited a year too long to open.

  Subtle fruits, hint of smoke, spice; good red fruits, structured and a tad bitter but very approachable. Nice finish. Mature. 88.

  OK, but not a lot of depth. Worked w/ Armenian burgers.

  Has not held up real well - on its last legs. Some rubbery, cardboad notes mar the fruit.
