  April 21, 2020 - Yuck! Dirty tasting as in earth/dirt. Not a single redeeming thing about this bottle. There's a bitter soy sauce note with scorched rubber underbrush and newly paved asphalt. This wine sucks more on day 2. Bummer. It was my last wine of a 3 pack and easily the worst.

  October 15, 2014 - Interesting notes on this wine! This bottle was all black olive, meat with a hint of white pepper. Some earthy blueberry...man was it delicious! and not a hint of vegetable. Can't wait for the last 3rd of the bottle tonight 12.4 ABV

Never would have guessed Syrah, but the vegetal element wasn't really a Cab Franc-ish thing either. Others seem to be having similar experiences, so I don't think this was flawed, just weird. Not very enjoyable.

  June 8, 2013 - This is probably the worst not defect wine I ever tried. had a taste and then throwed it in the zink. This is not a wine in my opinion.
