Dry, dusty, medium weight, smooth. Very good. Smells like stones. Good with steak. Tasted even better after breathing a while. Still great the next day, probably better. — a month ago

Always have two wines for your entree & sides . It’s always paid dividends for us.

Tannic I suppose due to age, but it developed over time and I really enjoyed it. Traditional style. — 5 months ago
