I believe I was gifted this bottle by Bob Henrick and opened it last night with some grilled beef ribs. Natural cork. Very dark, deep red color with no hints of either purple or brown. Generous nose of a cigar box and sour cherries with hints of cloves and hardwood smoke. Good acid with mild tannins and a medium finished, focused on the center of the tongue. Very enjoyable wine - I managed to drink the whole bottle by myself over a few hours.
Chico - Hey! This Bottle is empty!
Groucho - That's because it's dry Champagne.
