This wine sure got beat up looking at the previous notes. I liked it and thought it was a deal @ $28. Will probably drink my last one before too long because it ain't getting any better but it's not a dud. Like mentioned before, decant a bit and it comes around.

Plump, juicy blueberries; Solid, It's big but with a decent amount of structure; Just decant a bit; Score suffers for lack of nose; This stuff doesn't deserve the bad reputation

If you've still got any, drink up. Good, not great now. Fruit is on the downward side of intensity, still a nice little touch of tannin. But not going to get any better, IMO.

Very jammy and lacking acidity. Clearly on the decline.

From magnum. Prunes, boysenberry, lavender, violet and BBQ meats. Faded fruit with an alcoholic finish. Drink now.
