  Funky nose of rusted iron that blew-off somewhat after ~30-min. in the glass; a bit of leather also. Bitter, tannic, and disjointed on the palate; lacking balance. Weak entry, hollow mid-palate, and a fast finish. There is some dusty mouth-coating toward the end palate, but it's not well integrated with the drinking experience. Mainly, I get sour-cherry flavor. I find this bottle quite disagreeable.

  Tasted like a cheap grocery store $5 bottle. Sweet fruit, not a great balance. Consumed half a glass before relegating it to cooking wine and opening a different bottle. Won't be getting this again.
