Banger for the price. Let decant for an hour + to mellow the tannins. Then basque in subtle red fruits and spices and while thinking you should buy more of this.

Well balanced red, great with tomato sauce and not too overpowering.

Smoke, leather, cherry and dark spice. Great legs, opaque and eggplant-y in color. Probably one of the nicest balanced wines in memory; nice fruit forward opening (without being too tart or sweet), spice in the middle, lightly tannic with plum on the finish.
