Rating for United States-California: 95 (slightly better than average year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: too young, let it sit<br/>

rich burgundy colour. decanter for an hour prior to serving. Was mild and pleasant, paired well with BBQ, Beef tenderloin steaks, and heavy garlic bruschetta. On Day 2, seemed somewhat bitter, however in fairness was just after tasting a sweet Gurztraminer. May buy again if could find same vintage and price (under $16)

90 points. Can't ask for more for $10.

excellent tastes from start to finish
