If someone blinded me on this, I'd be supremely disappointed in its revelation. If someone poured this for me and I knew what it was, I'd be reticent to offer my opinion. If I worked at a place and bought it there at full price, I'd be astounded, and would've wished that I'd bought 4 bottles of 'Glou-Glou' at 1:4 cost. Disjointed. Vegetal. Weed-spray-like nose. Glycerin and heat on the nose. Paraffin. Hint of licorice. Cedar. Underripe cranberry and ascorbic acid palette with thin, tight, lean, unforgiving tannins. Where's the fruit you say? Oh, it's got some, but its candied, red vine twizzlers. Watched it change over 6 hours. I'm losing respect for a wine that I thought I cherished. Man, I'm sad about this, but the only face between disgust and smiley is :| $125
