Dark in color with a mild cherry nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some cherry notes along with some noticeable green pepper notes. I'm not sure if the wine is simply to young or what. I've had this wine over many years and never encountered this. On the medium length finish the wine displays some soft tannins and acidity. All in all I don't hate the wine, but I'm not enthralled by it either I would give it an 87-88 at best. If I more I'd return them 🙁
