I really enjoyed it and I would definitely have it again. If I do have it again, I hope my wine knowledge and experience will have expanded such that I can compare notes with myself. I wrote a little something elsewhere in this thread about my initial reactions.

    It smells a bit like Worcestershire sauce (which I like a lot) and very faintly of pine needles at the end. On tasting, there's a note of leather, though not at all the kind of impression I get of leather when tasting a scotch, if that makes sense. It's not sweet, but it is bright without being acidic. So far, I like it a lot. I can also taste a bit of nutmeg or allspice.
