Bought in 2010 for 15.00 a btl. A great value purchase at time. CT has window 2010-2016. After drinking this it has more left. Poured and drank the first btl. The second decanted for two hours Much more aroma and flavor.

Anything below a 90 is unfair to this wine. After an hour in the glass it is lovely. It's not huge, but it structured, balanced, slightly acidic, and beyond good at the price point.

Dark fruit, licorice and earth on the nose. Dark red and brambly fruit with very nice tannins and stemmy flavors. Straight forward but the tannins and earthy flavors add nice balance, and interest, to the fruit. Definitely a bordeaux profile. This is ready to drink but will probably hold for a while. Vinturied into decanter and let sit 3 hours.

Nose is rich with dark fruits. Medium body. Round in style, balanced acidity, silky tannins.
