Popped and poured, the first glass was thin, watery and lifeless. After 30-40 minutes of air time, the second and third glass were more inline with previous notes. Don't remember picking up any tobacco the first time I had this wine, but it was very distinct in this bottle. Smooth and enjoyable.

Past its peak but still quaffable. Faint notes of cherry, tobacco and tar.
