  This wine got away from me after 4 moves in the last 3 years. A little past its prime. Slightly oxidized and the fruit is a little bit pruned. Some interesting red fruit and rose flower aromas.

  I'm finding the wine to be slightly oxidized and massively alcoholic, especially on the nose (the labeled 14.2% seems much hotter than this) with sweet smoked meat, and overly-sweetish dark fruit ... The kicker is the off-putting finish Plastic cork.

  Cellar clean-up. Tasty for $10 on close-out.

  Sort of losing it now, but you can still find what we're talking about: nice stuffing and great French-your-mouth-feel at first -- sweet sediments w/ that stained and blue flavor. Totally nice ideas from a few years earlier. Then, nothing to offer secondarily and didn't finish the taste.

  Very interesting flavor - seemed strange at first, but really added depth to the wine.
