De los vinos que deben llegar con instrucciones je, je, je… 1- servir a temperatura baja; 2- decantar y/o abrir 2 horas antes de servirlo. Dicho esto, nos encontramos frente a un vino especiado, de muy buena acidez. De color rojo ladrillo opaco presenta el borde violeta. Fruta negra en nariz (ciruela, moras), con recuerdos a tierra húmeda, cuero, tabaco y clavo. En boca lo encontramos cálido, con aromas de especias orientales, cacao, galleta horneada, canela, chocolate negro, nuez moscada. …

dark purple with an opaque core and a bit of magenta on the rim and appreciable body. vanilla-infused sweet plum and mulberry compote, ripe blueberries, cocoa powder and peppery notes on the nose. air softens its still formidable tannins to a flavourful and rich mouthfeel where the the nose is closely replicated. there's an enjoyable earthiness to the chocolate notes to balance the ripeness of the fruit, and a vein of Assam tea along with the pepper spice give some …

Really really good! Nice complexity and good amount of flavor without being too jammy and fruity. Wished we had more

WineBid failure--add it to the list. Heat damage plus possibly corked; no reason for a 2013 to taste like this. Tasted toxic. Dumped.

Layered and silky with lighter oaky tannins. Quieter on finish than expected.

4th Saturday Group brown bagger (Rick's & Cris') : Aromas of vanilla and black fruit. Firm tannins, with flavors of blue fruit and pepper. Nicely balanced, with a lingering finish.

Pretty much what PVTerroir said. Will benefit from additional time in the bottle or decanting for a few hours.

Effusive and bright, while dark and tight, twisted. Blueberry pie, blackberry, cherries, pouporri, sweet jubilee cherries all day long. Decanted already 2 hours but will benefit from more. Some oxidation perceivable. Big full wine - minerally, spice, elegant cherry and earthy finish that lingers on, medium acidity, deliciousness factor is high here, conservative oak. Grown upvalley ..
