Description from the Vintage Cellar: "This opens with dark aromas of leather, tobacco,
cured meat, plum and prune. It shows soft tannins and loads of dark fruit on
the finish."
My Review: This wine is definitely just as the description says. The nose is very pungent, with strong fruit and leather notes. The taste is tannic, bitter, and earthy. It didn't seem too fantastic though. It tasted like your run-of-the-mill Italian red. It didn't blow me away.
