Since I had two, decided to open one for s&g. Tastes like an Aussie or South African Rhône blend, uber fruit-forward. Needs time to become anything worth buying again, even at the drastic discount price I paid.

Wow, a big velvety animal. But a young one, still waiting to grow into itself. Great wine with amazing potential.

Mushrooms, blood and cigar box. Clear signs of aging. Amazing complexity. Powerful aftertaste with hints of rooibos tea and candied black and red fruits.
