Massive. Not a bad wine. Just something I have almost no use for.

Too jammy oaky, it becomes bitter at the end

Massive power!! 30 minutes open in the bottle. Lovely nose. Good cherry fruit and cinnamon on the nose. The wine got bigger and bigger with air. Mix between Bordeaux and Napa. Great terroir with some spice and smoke. Nose and flavor of Bordeaux, with the huge power of Napa. Definitely has some years left in it. I enjoyed it with great jalapeño, onion, and cheese burgers from the local butcher.

Very expressive, dark fruit jam with some spices. Do not drink with empty stomach ;)
