Ludicrous blend of jammy fruit with toasty oak. This is not a subtle wine, having a wonderful wash of blackberry & vanilla. Powerful but lacking in tannins. Good out of the bottle, but to much air & the faulty designer wine blend trends to lay to the lack of structure. This blend might age well, but needs some other varietal for balance. But what do I know?

Whoa! Jammy is right! Lots of flavor here. Really grows on you. Decant for an hour and it opens right up. Would recommend with pork.

Cooked. Probably a great wine but cork was bleeding and definitely had raisin notes and little structure.
