Really nice bottle, especially considering the limited availability of good wine below the 20 dollar point here in PA.
Very full mouth-feel. A little stand-off-ish at first entry, offering only dark fruits and mild tannins. Develops over the first glass to offer some black and red cherries, some tartness (underripe cherry style), more developed tannins, and pronounced French oak.
Second glass opens more to offer some orange and a little bit of yellow fruits, with a developing nutty character which is probably most dominantly pecan. Lots of French-style grenache/syrah dark-cherry flavor. Tannins holding up nicely.
