The nose is a bit hot, mixed with dark fruit and spice (maybe a touch of cinnamon) The wine doesn't smell "Paso hot" and doesn't have any "hot" flavors. It does have big rich flavors that once it has opened up rather explode in your mouth. Lots of dark chewy fruit nicely balanced with the acids and tannins. There is a long spicy finish. This is tasting great right now, very enjoyable bottle.

Really great. Nicely balanced and layers of flavor. Glad I rested this one.
