Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Shows the ripeness you’d expect from the warm 2010 vintage, with attractive dark cherry, cassis, grilled red pepper, campfire smoke and a sprinkling of cocoa. Plenty of sun-kissed fruit on a medium-full-bodied frame backed by solid tannic structure. A supremely food-friendly red Bordeaux blend that will reward 3-4 years in a cellar; if enjoying tonight, decant it for an hour to let it breathe. Source: Vintages Wine Panel, Nov. 2012

Natalie who?
Yes, I'm a certified sommelier and was named the World's Best Wine Writer at the World Food Media Awards. Blah, blah, blah. What really matters is that I know which wines can increase your hedonistic happiness... a lot. Don't worry, spam doesn't pair well with wine!
