Going through the wine fridge and noticed the cork protruding noticeably. Popped and drank.

Clear ruby red with a hint of very slight brown around the rim.

Nice cherry cola nose with a touch of cedar and grassy mint.

Sweet candied cherries soft tannins, medium to light body with a not so pleasant bitter earthy finish that really won't go away.

Might be a bad bottle?

86. The bouquet is quite nice though and saves this wine.
