Dense, dark and rich with oak aromas. This deeply purple wine needs air to open. It offers plum, dark chocolate, toasty barrel, warm earth and blackberry fruit. It is dense and structured; a good match for the grilled porterhouse steak today. It stood up to the smoke from hardwood charcoal well. I think it needs time, at least 5 years to begin to unwind and show additional complexity. This is very good quality and a good value.
