Giddyup all the way.
I like this wine, it's got a full body, complex structure, it's plain and simple wonderful.
At $20 a bottle, I don't think it's a great deal but it is absolutely worth the money.
Considering there are only a few bottles left around town, I think I'll have to buy a couple for the inventory, if you find it go for it you will not be disappointed.

This is a very yummy wine.
Who knew that horse smell could be appetizing, never mind intriguing.

Starts with a nose of wet leather, but in the most appealing of ways.

On the buy Again list for sure. At 15 clams, I have had worse at twice the price and not very often better for less

An excellent wine that benefitted tremendously with a decant o f 60 min or more.
Velvetty without being tingue coating and hairy.
Hints of cedar round out the flavour.
Definatly remains on the shopping list, this one can benefit from some time in the cellar
