Earthy semicarbonic notes with dirt, mushroom, and slight VA- smells like skin contact.
Dry high alcohol med plus acid. Med minus tannins-nice and grippy. Medium bitterness. Notable petillance. Old watermelon rinds. I don't really understand this wine.

Fascinating nose of ripe blackberry and charred meat. Faint black pepper and herbal rosemary notes. Smells smoky and black.
