Medium ruby in color; graphite, raspberries, and a hint of chocolate on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like cherries, cranberries, and wet gravel with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it. Jason likes it. I do too.

Plums and dusty tannins straight out of the bottle, yet still easily quaffable. 5 minutes into the decanter: dried strawberries, cherries, blue fruit and a touch of baking spice & cola on the finish. 30 minutes in, the oak that this was obviously aged in, becomes quite prominent the longer it sits, but levels off and that’s a good thing. Sensational wine at it’s price point and very enjoyable once it’s opened up. Like most good wines, give it 30 in a decanter and it will surprise you. Yum.
