(Original Post: May 2015) Wonderful deep purple in the decanter Nose suggested cherry or plum This wine was bold, rich, smooth & delicious. I had it with an extra-sharp Welsh cheddar; also, with a meatloaf and pepper-jack sandwich. All I can say is Wow, Jacqi did it again! (Update: July 2015) It's only been three additional months in the bottle, but this was even better than I remembered: everything I posted above PLUS intense fruit-forwardness and wonderful linger; well-balanced and all around a pleasure to sip. My problem was saying "No," to seconds! Cheers
