Not sure if I had an off bottle, but this tasted very green. Green bell pepper was all I got on the palate and nose, not much in the way of fruit here.

A very nice bouquet of herbs, spices and flowers on the nose. On the palate, the initial taste of strong, sweet fruits is quickly counterbalanced by medium acidity, velvety tannins and some baking spices. 15% ABV, but doesn’t show it. Definitely not an austere wine, but a very nice one.

Pretty one-dimensional; not much on the nose beyond nondescript red fruits. Palate is fruity and balanced by a pleasant ~med acidity, light on tannins. Nothing wrong with the wine, but it’s pretty unremarkable in every aspect.
