Thick and saucy, with a nose akin to BBQ. Along the way are chocolate, stewed prune and bacon. The mouth sports rich, ripe cherry and berry fruit while the easygoing finish yields more of that oaky bacon found on the nose. On the heavier but not too much so.

For a long while in the glass this wine seemed acrid and sulfuric. Time and air finally forced out dark plum fruit aromas, a meaty mouthfeel, and a lot of fudge and coffee on the finish.

Jumbled, jammy and disjointed, with a heavy load of extracted, overdone fruit. Deep and hard, with funky aromas and a disconcerting mouthfeel. A wine with issues. Imported by VinLozano Imports.
