This volcanic wine took a while to open up. The tar matches the inky black color. Chewy tannins carry the wine to a long finish. Fantastic wine from a severely under appreciated and under exporter region.

A little brown and past it's prime. However, it's still pretty nice for the price.

I really enjoy these rustic styles of wine. Blackberry, black cherry, tobacco, cigar box, and earthiness. Tannins are still prominent and def best with food.
