Pretty cool looking bottle. Between the name and the look of the bottle, you'd think I actually paid more than $10 for it...but you'd be wrong! The color is a very deep purple and the aroma is smoked ham and a little dark chocolate. This was a pretty good wine right up to the point where I put it in my mouth. It isn't awful wine, just a style of Cab that I don't care for. It has a very smoky flavor, almost burnt, and very pronounced tannins. Not my favorite, I'll finish the bottle though.
