Accuracy: ? - Not enough reference available to me to make an accurate assessment.
Overall Rating: 10 - Satisfies my desire to own what I perceive to be an accurate replica.
This is a full scale replica of the laser pistols used by the Sentry Robots in the underrated 1979 Disney movie "The Black Hole".
The props used in the film were rather crudely made, as many props are, but this kit of the pistol gives you a great replica without looking as crude as the originals due to better finishing and good casting.
The gun consists of two over-and-under barrels attached to a double crescent shaped handle. The gun is almost completely symmetrical about the X an Y axis except for the trigger and some of the cylindrical detailing toward the front of the model. The main barrel assemblies consist entirely of various sized rods glued together to form the overall shape. A very simple design, showing that simplicity itself with a bit of imagination is all it takes to make a sci-fi prop!
How accurate is the kit? At the time of this writing I have no where near enough information to make a good comparison (although I know I saw a closeup picture of an original prop someplace- just can't remember where!), but I'm sure that given AIM's usual attention to detail, that the replica is about as authentic as you can get without acquiring an original. I have, for this review, studied the DVD of the movie to check, and I cannot see anything that makes this replica inaccurate. If I was told it was a re-worked original prop casting, I'd have no proof to believe otherwise.
The model will be very easy to build, requiring only some light cleanup work, minor filling and sanding, and assembly with superglue. The hardest part to clean up will be the flash and seams on the "spring coil" parts.
If you will be handling the model a lot, I recommend making some modifications by drilling holes into mating parts and fitting metal rods or wooden dowels to strengthen the joints and glueing them together using epoxy. This will make the model able to stand rougher handling better than the brittle superglues that would normally be used.
As far as colour scheme goes, the instructions state that the prop should be painted metallic charcoal gray with silver "wear-and-tear" highlights and red barrel tips and trigger. This appears for the most part to be accurate, but upon studying the DVD it looks in some shots like the cluster of rods around the rear and front of the main twin bodies may be high gloss silver or chrome, with the rest of the gun either high gloss black or very dark gloss metallic gray. The "springs" on the barrel coils are definitely silver or plated. However this is pure conjecture on my part since as we all know things look quite different in the film than they may in real life. No question about it though, the robot S.T.A.R.'s pistols were entirely chrome plated!
Overall, I think this is a fabulous kit to get if you want a replica of this rather unusual looking laser gun.

There’s something alluring about chilling in your comfortable pants whereas within the confines of your individual dwelling and getting paid at the similar time. Hi there I have a question: I watch TV by way of my Dell 24 inch monitor (part hook-up) on a Studio XPS 9100 with Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium). My audio is being piped in from the cable field (RCA to 3.5mm audio) to the road-in option on the sound card. Now as soon as I hook up the Rokit6’s to the M-Audio Fast Observe Pro interface, I will now not have use of the audio hookup. How do I resolve the lacking audio from the cable box? I thought of using a 3.5mm to 1/4 cable adapter and going by way of one of the inputs on the m-audio, or is there one other means? Thanks prematurely.
In sum, educational technology 2 guarantees to convey the student trainer and the skilled trainer trainee to the challenge of a new age- integrating technology in the teaching-studying process. The brisk face of technology advancement and innovation continues, however ET 2 is a preparation to carry our lecturers to extra ahead with their makes use of of technology within the classroom.
I blame the celebrities that undertake the slang to impress the children and make themselves sound cool. Not entirely positive why all of them think it is cool however I’m pretty certain that when they strategy center age it will sound silly. So that is when it will stop, its the same with clothes you’ll be able to’t speak like a young person or gown like a teenager if you find yourself approaching 50. Just not going to happen.

How to increase metabolism or is metabolism a myth?Home » 4 Metabolism Myths, Busted!
There are probably as many myths about your metabolism as there are truths. Some of the erroneous information has been around so long and so widely promoted that many believe it to be true.
2. Hot peppers burn more calories.
3. Caffeine boosts your metabolism.
4. A pound of muscle burns 100 calories per day.
The advice here has always been to eat breakfast within an hour after arising to get your metabolism revved up from your night of fasting. The truth is it is not as important that you eat as it is what you eat.
Make sure your breakfast consists of fiber, lean protein, and other nutrients. The cold hard fact is if you have to choose between a doughnut and nothing, choose nothing. You don’t need the saturated fat and sugar found in most baked goods. The spike in calories burned by your metabolism from eating a doughnut isn’t enough to offset the additional calories ingested.
While it is true that hot peppers burn calories, a presentation from a recent study from Experimental Biology suggests mild peppers have the same calorie potential without the mouth-singeing agony.
This is mostly true also, but it is highly dependent on the source of your caffeine. Drinking black coffee and tea provides a small caffeine boost, but if you get caffeine from energy drinks, you are better off not getting any boost at all. Energy drinks are loaded with sugar – up to 1/4 cup per drink in some cases. When all that sugar hits your bloodstream, abundant amounts of insulin are released and what your body can’t use at that time is stored as fat – belly fat. One of the most dangerous kinds of fat.
If you want to burn more calories, drink more water. Increasing your water consumption can burn an additional 17,400 calories per year or about 5 pounds.
This myth has been greatly over-exaggerated. Actually while at rest, muscle burns about 6 calories per pound of muscle per hour. However, that is still three times the amount that fat burns in the same amount of time – at just 2 calories per pound. So it still pays to lose body fat and gain muscle through exercising – it is just that the number of calories burned won’t be as significant as reported in the media.
These are just 4 of the more popular myths that have perpetuated themselves over the years. To increase your metabolic rate, it still comes down to eating healthy foods in the right portions consistently at the same times, along with cardio and strength training exercise.
Snacking is an essential element of any balanced diet and a valuable approach to keeping your body going throughout the day. On the other hand, the same as with main meals, eating an inappropriate type of snack foods can drastically influence on your energy levels and efficiency.

We are using the graphene template on our wordpress site.
Problem 1- Probably the most important one: When you hover over the ‘Artist’ link on the top menu bar, it lists all of the participating artists…this is perfect. HOWEVER, when you actually click on the ‘Artist’ link, it takes you to this hideous listing of all of the different children pages (each artist), and each one has this same weird repetitive image next to it. HOW can we get rid of this list and just make the Artist page a blank page, supplying its own information, but still keep the hover list of all the artists when you hover over it?
Problem 2- The sidebar headers on the right are a blue color that completely clashes with the rest of the site. Where can the color of this be edited?
If just ONE of these questions can be answered I will be happy, but if BOTH can be answered, I will be ecstatic.

The National Hockey League's brightest stars will convene at Staples Center in Los Angeles for the 62nd annual All-Star Game this weekend. The two-day affair, which will feature a bevy of entertainment on Saturday and Sunday, touches down in Los Angeles for the first time since 2002. And with that long drought now over, NHL All-Star Game tickets are drawing big demand on the resale market.
On TicketIQ, the average resale price for 2017 NHL All-Star Game tickets is now $407. That makes it the third most expensive NHL All-Star Game since 2011. Over that time, however, the league experienced the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season as well as 2014's cancellation of the game due to the Winter Olympics. Even so, this year's All-Star Game is considerably pricier on average than 2011's game at PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina and 2015's game at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
The National Hockey League will showcase its best stars on Saturday night at Staples Center in the All-Star Skills Competition. The league will crown new winners in several contests, including the fastest skater, accuracy shot and hardest shot. The most notable change for 2017 is the replacement of the breakaway challenge with the Four-Line Challenge. NHL All-Star Saturday Night tickets currently average $245 and the get-in price is $57, as Montreal Canadiens all-star Shea Weber looks for his third straight hardest shot competition victory in Los Angeles. The average 2017 NHL Saturday Night tickets are 34 percent less expensive than the 2016 ones, and the get-in price shows a 59 percent decrease from the previous year.
On Sunday at Staples Center, the NHL will host the 62nd annual All-Star Game as a three-on-three tournament. The fans elected the captains of the four teams: Canadiens goalie Carey Price, Predators defenseman P.K. Subban, Penguins forward Sidney Crosby and Oilers forward Connor McDavid. NHL All-Star Game tickets on TicketIQ currently average $474, and the cheapest available tickets start from $144 each. The average price is more expensive than other recent NHL All-Star Games, except for the 2012 All-Star tickets average price of $498. Each team, which represents one of the four league’s divisions, is led by the coach of the team with the best points percentage as of January 10; the Atlantic Division has the only coach (Michel Therrien) and team captain (Price) from the same team, the Canadiens.
The NHL Saturday Night and the NHL All-Star Game are such exciting events, and tickets to both can be purchased with the 2-day pass. NHL All-Star Weekend 2-day passes currently average $918 and start from $325 each. The average price is 30 percent more than the previous year, but the get-in price is just a six percent increase from 2016. The league will be hosting this special weekend for the third consecutive year for the first time since 2009.

the national hockey league will showcase its best stars on saturday night at staples center in the all-star skills competition. the league will crown new winners in several contests, including the fastest skater, accuracy shot and hardest shot. the most notable change for 2017 is the replacement of the breakaway challenge with the four-line challenge. nhl all-star saturday night tickets currently average $245 and the get-in price is $57, as montreal canadiens all-star shea weber looks for his third straight hardest shot competition victory in los angeles. the average 2017 nhl saturday night tickets are 34 percent less expensive than the 2016 ones, and the get-in price shows a 59 percent decrease from the previous year.
on sunday at staples center, the nhl will host the 62nd annual all-star game as a three-on-three tournament. the fans elected the captains of the four teams: canadiens goalie carey price, predators defenseman p.k. subban, penguins forward sidney crosby and oilers forward connor mcdavid. nhl all-star game tickets on ticketiq currently average $474, and the cheapest available tickets start from $144 each. the average price is more expensive than other recent nhl all-star games, except for the 2012 all-star tickets average price of $498. each team, which represents one of the four league’s divisions, is led by the coach of the team with the best points percentage as of january 10; the atlantic division has the only coach (michel therrien) and team captain (price) from the same team, the canadiens.
the nhl saturday night and the nhl all-star game are such exciting events, and tickets to both can be purchased with the 2-day pass. nhl all-star weekend 2-day passes currently average $918 and start from $325 each. the average price is 30 percent more than the previous year, but the get-in price is just a six percent increase from 2016. the league will be hosting this special weekend for the third consecutive year for the first time since 2009.
newark kcon tickets 15% cheaper on secondary market than l.a.

Haha. Een van de betere 1 aprilgrappen.
Think of it as a Swiss Army knife - one device that does everything, none of them well.
For example, if you want to start Firefox, Chrome, or any other web browser, all you've got to do is hold down the CTRL-ALT-F12-SysReq-Scroll_Lock keys simultaneously while typing "browser", which will pop up a menu displaying all the browsers currently available on your system, inviting you to choose one by hitting ESC and typing the browser's name. If you want to start an editor, just do the same key combination and type "editor." What could be simpler?
[W]e are presented with a pleasant default blue screen (note that the color is non-configurable).
Our plan now is to have Inanity ready to be the default desktop for Ubuntu 12.10, and with luck it should be stable within the next five years.
Dat is nu een interface die ik zou gebruiken!
Hahaha precies. Die eenvoud op dat plaatje vind ik echt heel erg prettig ogen!

Japanese publisher Hamster Corporation has become known over the years for reviving classic video games and adding modern touches to each one. Its recent focus on Nintendo’s retro library for the Switch eShop has been well-received so far.
I’ve always wanted to release a collection of famous Nintendo arcade titles via the ‘Arcade Archives’ series. With that wish and also Nintendo’s cooperation, we were finally able to make that a reality. When it was finally decided we would do it, I think I was more surprised than anyone.
The ‘Arcade Archives’ series was established with the aim of looking back into the past and restoring classic arcade games. This is just my guess, but I think a common ethos is one reason we succeeded.
I think being allowed to port Nintendo’s titles [also] has a lot to do with a history we share… on the Wii U we released games on the Virtual Console.
In those cases we acquire the original circuit boards and work from there. But honestly there are also plenty of cases where we can’t acquire those circuit boards and so can’t republish the game at all.
Are you a fan of Hamster’s Arcade Archives series? Have you bought any of the Nintendo releases so far? Tell us below.
Hamster have been great for the Switch. I've had scores of hours of arcade score chasing fun. I just wish they were able to release some later 90's arcade classics as well. Other than Neo Geo all their arcade releases have been from the 80's or very early 90's.
I just find it extremely strange how the slightly altered Vs Super Mario Bros can be bought on the Switch no problem, but the massively popular and influential original NES Super Mario Bros is not on the storefront at all.
@EarthboundBenjy NES Super Mario Brothers is present and has been for a few weeks now.
@EarthboundBenjy bet you more people have NES super Mario Bros on their Switch through the online app than have vs super Mario Bros. As a separate purchased game.
Thank you, Hamster Corp., for reviving a happy experience from my youth! The extra features, such as Caravan mode and the different arcade settings, are the icing on a perfect cake.
I hope this means we get Mario Kart GP & F-Zero AX on the Switch.
I do enjoy the novelty of owning Arcade Punchout in the palms of my hands. Though normally I put it in vertical mode and put it in a stand while I use a joycon in each hand....you get the idea. No other Nintendo Arcade game has been unique enough for me to slap down $8 per game though. Sky Skipper is not my cup of tea and I get NES versions of Donkey Kong, Excitebike, Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros with the Nintendo Online feature.
I'm surprised that Nintendo is not publishing their own arcade catalog, now that they're available for the first time. It would be the new big thing, better than the NES Online Service imo. Instead they let Hamster do it under their Arcade Archives label. Hamster should cosider themselves lucky for that opportunity. Or, maybe, without Hamster we wouldn't have gotten them at all.
I only wish that Nintendo had given their own back catalogue similar treatment. I prefer to at least own my games, so I am not at all a fan of the NSO model.
@diwdiws I grew up on both, myself. They are both awesome and I like both. I was fascinated back then with how incredibly different the computer experience was from the NES not realizing the specialized graphics chips were part of what made that 60 fps gaming possible.
Ultima IV and V were so, so good on the Apple ][. Wizardy I never finished, I was a little young so my Dad went first, painstakingly filled in graph paper pads piling up next the computer. Bard's Tale was amazing but just brutal and not worth the journey for me.
The weirdest moments were when RPGs started showing up on consoles. Master System's Miracle Warriors was so dumbed down compared to computer games, yet somehow enjoyable and interesting. Then, Phantasy Star convinced me that there was something worthwhile to the different approach.
Meanwhile, the 2D side scrolling games on computers really fell behind during the first years of the NES, in my opinion.
Before and during all that early home gaming, though, the arcades were such a great experimental play zone, with many of them distinctly different in hardware, not just software — which is often lost with all the emulation.
I'd love to know which cases exist where they can't even get hold of the original boards.
I`m one of those who won`t buy these games because I plan to have Nintendo Online for as long as it exists.
Edit: I did buy Metal Slug 4, and don`t regret it.
I just hope Hamster is already negotiating with Nickelodeon and Konami to bring the TMNT arcade games back from the dead.
Not interested in the arcade releases so far. But really like the AcA neo geo stuff.
I've only ever played Quest of the Avatar. It was...very unusual, interesting and confusing.
@SKTTR Idk? Maybe it's the many hands make less work deal?
I wonder what games he was referring too that apparently won’t get republished??
@NinChocolate I am so thankful, cause I have waited forever for arcade perfect Donkey Kong, and soon DK Jr. Thanks to Hamster, no arcade game seems to be off limits and I look forward to seeing what else they dig up.
If I get a NS, I'll definitely be supporting these guys. Arcade DK, and Vs.SMB! Nice!
@Capt_N Do it! Just...do it!
Hmm, I'd appreciate a list of those arcade games that no longer have the original code or circuit boards available. Then I'll know which games to never get my hopes up about a possible re-release.
I'm kinda nd of curious.... What games have they had difficulty republishing? I'm sure there are a few collectors out there that would be willing to share their circuit board to keep a game alive.
@NinChocolate Me neither, not for the lack of cooperation from Nintendo, but for the legal problems with the code owner, Ikegami Tsushinki.
@Moroboshi876 Hmm, interesting. Where does this backstory come from?
@NinChocolate You can read this interesting article from here our beloved Nintendo Life itself.
@EarthboundBenjy if you're a switch online subscriber you can download it and other nes games and play them online with a friend.
I just wish they would do a better job on their icon designs. They should have included the original artwork instead of screenshots of the games. It's just lazy!
Hamster is to the Switch what the VC was to the Wii, imo.
@diwdiws Nah, even in the NES days I focused on "story" (or what passed for story back then) games. LoZ, Castlevania, Mario, Sonic, etc. Even at the arcades, I tended to follow Beat 'Em Ups and Shmups mostly to see how far I could advance rather than for high scores. I never paid attention to scores.
Still, it's not that I don't really like "gamey games" still, so much as as long as there's a massive supply of deep exploration games, the "gamey games" always take a back shelf. I've never chased a score, and I never will, not in the 80's arcade, and not today.
I picked up Metal Slug when it was on sale. I was a bit disappointed that it didn’t come “out of the box” with scanlines that worked on both TV and portable or the option to have different screen modes for each case.
I was able to find a setting that worked but I was under the impression it would be like the NES/SNES Classic where they had a “scanline mode” that I could activate and get to playing without spending the first hour tweaking the settings while “playing” through the first level over and over.
I prefer the arcades more than the nes ports because of the extra memory and graphics. They had to squeeze it to an eight bit port, and you couldn't have the whole game.

Last summer on the beach my eyes followed my husband�s to a mother and daughter duo slathering themselves with baby oil. We had a pretty good laugh over our very different reactions. Naturally my gentleman was drawn to breasts with oil being rubbed on them. Absolutely understandable. And I was wondering how a mother in her right mind, in this day and age, could set the example and then allow her daughter to cover herself with oil, what with the rise in skin cancer because of the ozone layer and all of that. �Wah wah wah,� my voice bonged like the Peanuts teacher in my husband�s ears because, well, glistening oil boobies. I have my own summertime bathing suit weakness. Actually, my problem is not relegated solely to summer. I am obsessed with swimsuits. I think I�ve been sold on the promise of what the bathing suit represents. This time of year or in the dead of winter I want all of the beautifully colored scraps of nylon and spandex. Paisley ones and tie-dyed numbers and nautical navy and white tankinis and high-waisted Esther Williams halter bikinis. The irony is that I�m not actually a fan of how I look in a bathing suit. Still, the perfect bathing suit = the perfect bathing suit lifestyle + the perfect bathing suit body. It�s just supposed to happen, right? And then the other irony is that I wear one specific bathing suit constantly and the rest of them live in a plastic box at the bottom of the closet, screaming for trips to San Tropez, the South of France and Southern California. When I become that girl maybe they�ll literally have their time in the sun. For now they�ll have to languish unloved and unworn in New England. My current go-to tankini is made by Beach House. It�s strapless navy with small white polka dots and a ruffle and a skirted bottom. Yes, I�ve always been a proponent of geriatric chic, so deal with that. It�s actually quite cute and pairs well with a white sun hat. It�s retro. I�ve been waiting for it, seemingly, my whole life. Finally bathing suit companies have listened to what a lot of us want to wear�old style. Not everyone should be rocking a three-triangle string bikini. If you�ve ever stepped foot on a beach you know this to be true. I have tremendous respect and envy for a woman who pours herself into an eyepatch and a couple of slingshots and wish I could share some of her lack of inhibition. But, until then, I�ll cover myself as I see fit and leave the exhibitionism to those better-suited to it. That�s not to say there isn�t a string bikini hanging out somewhere in the bottom of the plastic tub of body image dreams, taunting me to take more Pilates classes. Until I answer its seductive call with some cardio, a couple of yoga classes, and a reasonable cheeseburger now and then will have to do. Jenn Sutkowski has a gentleman friend who had an old-timey one-piece made for a water-slide trip. It was a big hit. �Portlandia� is right about the dream of the 1890s being alive.

And I was wondering how a mother in her right mind, in this day and age, could set the example and then allow her daughter to cover herself with oil, what with the rise in skin cancer because of the ozone layer and all of that. �Wah wah wah,� my voice bonged like the Peanuts teacher in my husband�s ears because, well, glistening oil boobies. I have my own summertime bathing suit weakness. Actually, my problem is not relegated solely to summer. I am obsessed with swimsuits. I think I�ve been sold on the promise of what the bathing suit represents. This time of year or in the dead of winter I want all of the beautifully colored scraps of nylon and spandex. Paisley ones and tie-dyed numbers and nautical navy and white tankinis and high-waisted Esther Williams halter bikinis. The irony is that I�m not actually a fan of how I look in a bathing suit. Still, the perfect bathing suit = the perfect bathing suit lifestyle + the perfect bathing suit body. It�s just supposed to happen, right? And then the other irony is that I wear one specific bathing suit constantly and the rest of them live in a plastic box at the bottom of the closet, screaming for trips to San Tropez, the South of France and Southern California. When I become that girl maybe they�ll literally have their time in the sun. For now they�ll have to languish unloved and unworn in New England. My current go-to tankini is made by Beach House. It�s strapless navy with small white polka dots and a ruffle and a skirted bottom. Yes, I�ve always been a proponent of geriatric chic, so deal with that. It�s actually quite cute and pairs well with a white sun hat. It�s retro. I�ve been waiting for it, seemingly, my whole life. Finally bathing suit companies have listened to what a lot of us want to wear�old style. Not everyone should be rocking a three-triangle string bikini. If you�ve ever stepped foot on a beach you know this to be true. I have tremendous respect and envy for a woman who pours herself into an eyepatch and a couple of slingshots and wish I could share some of her lack of inhibition. But, until then, I�ll cover myself as I see fit and leave the exhibitionism to those better-suited to it. That�s not to say there isn�t a string bikini hanging out somewhere in the bottom of the plastic tub of body image dreams, taunting me to take more Pilates classes. Until I answer its seductive call with some cardio, a couple of yoga classes, and a reasonable cheeseburger now and then will have to do. Jenn Sutkowski has a gentleman friend who had an old-timey one-piece made for a water-slide trip. It was a big hit. �Portlandia� is right about the dream of the 1890s being alive.

The trees in your compound take some tender loving care to flourish. They need to be watered and sometimes trimmed as well. Other times, these trees may need to be cut down. While some trees have to be removed from your compound for various reasons, professional arborists will let you know when this is unnecessary and recommend trimming instead. At Troy Tree Service Pros, we ensure that our professionals give direction on the best course of action before proceeding with a trim.
There are a number of benefits that you get to enjoy from tree trimming. For trees that bear fruit, a special type of trimming referred to as pruning is beneficial. When you prune, the tree’s capacity to bear fruit increases and you get a bigger harvest.
Additionally, trimming can also help avoid accidents, loss of life and property. If you have a stable tree in your compound that does not need to be removed but has overgrown branches, then it needs to be trimmed. These branches are dangerous if they grow towards the house, hang over the garage or even the play area in the compound. In case of a storm or strong winds, these branches could break off and fall on people, animals or property leading to injury, damage and/ or loss of life. Once these branches are trimmed, the compound is safe again.
Trees can also be trimmed for aesthetic reasons. If you would like to shape your tree a certain way or even just to make it symmetrical, then you can opt for trimming. Compound trees play a big role in your lawns appeal and thus ought to be maintained.
A number of people opt to trim their own trees using tutorials regardless of the fact that they are not professionals. This can be very dangerous. To ensure that your trees are well taken care of, you need to call a professional. Professional arborists will visit your site and assess the structure and health of your trees before proceeding further. They advise you about what needs to be done: whether cutting or trimming. Perhaps you thought a tree had to be cut down only to realize after a consultation that you do not need to remove the tree but to have it trimmed.
Other than getting professional advice, it is important to get a professional to trim your tree because they are experienced and trained for it. This drastically reduces the chances of damage to the compound and house as well as bodily harm to the one trimming and others within the compound. Also, professional arborists are best place to tell you the next course of action in case they find that your trees are diseased or infested in the course of trimming.
If you are in need of tree trimming services and would like to get a professional, contact us today. We have a team of highly skilled and trained people who have vast experience as well as hi-tech equipment to ensure that the job gets done.

The days of our lives, in which we lived so hopelessly.
Dear God, I gave it all I got.
When will the devil stop choking me?
Before I reeked of sin, they never noticed me.
When chaos kept me content.
He recognized the twisted intentions of a weak mind.
I tap danced with Lucifer, while on several occasions making love to the life of crime.
Her heart is still drenched with regret.
no amount of gin can wash away the stress.
There was a time when I didn’t know roses came with thorns.
As if the highway to success did not have many storms.
When a torn heart felt just fine.
22. Georgia. Lets Learn to love life.

In the glass – this Grenache, Syrah, Carignan blend out of Roussillon has a black center with purple edges and an electric halo….
When the wine lands on my tongue there’s an acidic bing-cherry start that finds its way into something a bit more vegetal with some bell pepper peeking through…. The mid-palate is grippy with burnt-oak, blackberries, and bicycle tire ———-> By the time I get to the finish, there is a scoop of powdered dark chocolate mingling with a plummy note and a tannic structure that hangs onnnnnnn for a while….
This is a pretty fun wine y’all…. While it’s certainly not overly-serious, it DOES have some backbone and enough complexity to keep you engaged…. For around $15 bucks, it’s a buy, yo!
