SQN Red Handed 1995 750mL Scuffed Label

this wine is still alive, with a medium ruby color and the classic peppery and kirsch notes, along with some loamy soil and earthiness and a hint of wood smoke. In the mouth, one could call it elegant, but it lacks exuberance, and much of the fat and density of fruit have faded, revealing more acid and tannin in a slightly clipped finish.
