Had to resurrect this post, as I just popped open a bottle with pizza last night.

Absolute perfection! With the pizza, that is. Nose is more complex than I'd remembered, with raisin and spice notes. Smoky finish, with some bacon fat. This all in addition to the superlatives mentioned previously. Wonderfully complex, yet subtle, and still complementary. Picked up a case of this at $4.99 per. The deal of the century!

Earlier I'd used the Buckorama method and given it 88/97; I'm raising estimates, as the Wall Street saying goes, and now rate it 94/97.

I'm curious--is anyone else familiar with this wine? Foodie? Boto?
