I concluded that this wine should be accompanied by cheeses, olives, and/or bruschetta--it seems like a wine that should be paired with an appetizer or a meal. Brian concluded it was "dull," and Matthew astutely noted that it has an identity crisis ("muddled" was the term he used), exemplified by the fact that the wine is a mix of 35% merlot, 35% cabernet sauvignon, and 30% cab franc. Therefore, it is difficult to derive one overall impression of the taste. None of the flavors was "off"--it is a clean wine, but not exactly tasty.
Nose: Olives, Spicy, Oak, Alcohol, Licorice
