I bought this at a great price largely based on critics' scores, and I'm sorry I did. Everything about this wine is just a shame. It's a shame I paid any money for it, and it's a shame that a wine that has good fruit and nice acidity needed to be sabotaged with so much oak that one may think there's a whole oak tree in the bottle. All I could taste was roast coffee flavors and burnt, scorched earth. The oak is so prevalent that it's just plain ridiculous. I don't think this can even be used for cooking. It's not often that I flat out hate a wine, but this one I do...it is truly vile. Stay away from it as far as you can. DNPIM.
