After an hour of decanting - dark fruits, pepper, mint, black tea and dry, unsmoked cigarettes in the glass. The fumes as they blow off remind me a little of my mother's purse - cough drops, Wrigley's spearmint gum, and old, dusty, loose tobacco. A fair enough value, though a little weak at this price point - I kept wishing the fruit was a little more concentrated.

This wine was practically undrinkable. Way out of balance with an unpleasant aftertaste.
