Aeration before tasting: Just a swirl or two, no special aeration.
Cork Condition: Natural Cork - no defects or issues.
Appearance: Wine is clear, dark (dark) purple core/center with a pinkish rim.
Aroma: Dark, cooked fruits like black cherry. Also some licorice, cola, oak, and a bit of pepper.
The Grade: I give this one an A. This is a wine that could stand some more aging or a day's worth of decanting. Assuming that would tame the tannins and accentuate the big fruit flavors, I think this is a great wine, especially for under $20.
