This wine is a fantastic value. A gorgeous, complex nose, rich middle with a wonderful finish. Probably the best wine under $20 I've ever tasted. [Note this review is posted in the morning, not immediately after consuming]

well done.

dense but not too extracted, fruity but not too sweet..a well balanced, fairly complex blend.

A tad hot at 14,5% but not overwhelmingly so.

drinking very well now, but will hold for a few years.
