  Rather simple with good cherry-fruit, light-bodied and easy-drinking but uninspiring. The bottle we had didn't had any rustic, earth or mushroom that other notes mentioned … didn't really sing NSG to me.

  Kick of black crystalline acidity on the front end of the palate, a swirl of blackberries, strawberries, with a light undertone of savory. Clean beautiful. really fires the imagination. Beautiful finish. 92-95

  From a 375ml. #2 for palate and nose in a group of four.
  
  Color: Ruby
  
  Smell: Manure, cedar, wild game, mushrooms, and a faint floral hint at roses. Such a rustic and earthy nose while still offering red fruits and light hints of cedar.
  
  Taste: Rhubarb, sour cherry, strawberry, raspberries, hint of soy sauce
  
  Overall: Med Tannin with wonderful balance and lithe acidity. Poised to become something special with patience and time in the bottle.
