Big and round with a touch of green pepper and tobacco. Good density and blue fruits, with a touch of earth. Good value and nice wine which should age really nicely.

Better decanted for at least an hour. Nice blend. Pepper in the back end, very fruit forward on the front. 48% CS, 41% Mer, 11% CF

Outstanding blend. Very well balanced, oak is well integrated, Med-full bodied, med-high alcohol, smooth but evident tannin, focused palate, complex and interesting. Thanks for the freebie, Chris! @avennia
