As noted by previous reviewers, this wine should've been consumed a few years ago. Still pretty good and at least "interesting." Color still showing off as fairly young, I'd classify it as medium purple-red. On the nose you get telltale "wobbly" elements of stewed fruit and slight musk that belie it's drinking state. Tannins are pretty much gone though there are still some decent notes of oak and maybe a little latent caramel in the background. It has to be stated that this is not an expensive bottle (~$12), so taking that into consideration, this is definitely worth a try.

Probably beyond its prime - but was definitely drinkable.

This is the second bottle i tried. Not as good as the first, something wrong with the bottle. Drinkable, but not nearly as good as the 1st.
