This has nothing interesting about it. It’s a dull red wine. C

Impressive considering the price of the wine mixed with the age. Holding up better than I expected.

P.S. I love the old labels. Also, bring back the stamp labels for the Paraduxx

More earthy than I remember, good blend but not the best of the family.

Has notes of cherry and dark fruits. Very bold and leaves a very strong aftertaste. I don’t know if I love it. Heavy

Really wanted to like this one more. Plenty of black cherry, as well as blueberry and blackberry supporting. A bit of oak, some structure to support, but feels like it misses a mark. Lots of potential but not quite singing together.
