This was $13 – marked down from $25. Even though it's a bit old, I figured it wouldn't hurt to try.Licorice and earth on the nose.
Smooth tannins but bold and fruity - plum, ripe blackberry, licorice, and some sweet oak on the palate. Lots of dark fruit all around but very nicely balanced.
Cherry and black licorice on the finish which lingers for a solid amount of time – over a minute.
No arguments here for $13, but I don't know about the $25 retail price. By all means, it's a good bottle of wine, but there's not much of a wow factor.
