Nose: There is a very noticeable tomato note that strikes right off the bat along with some red fruits and herbs. The tomato note is a bit off putting and is fairly distracting. It's not stewed fruits and doesn't seem like it's heat damaged.
Taste: Medium bodied with medium/light acidity. There aren't any discernable tannins along with tomatoes, cherries, and some herbs. The tomato notes carry through and are just as off putting.
Overall: This didn't feel like a flawed bottle as much as it felt like it's not a good wine.

Mushroom and cherries. Full and smooth. Really nice late developing characters.

Very marmite-y to the nose. Doesn't seem like the best sign. Hmm, a more enjoyable palate for sure, red fruit, mature, earthiness.

Aeolian Sailing Trip & a bit of Etna; 8/22/2014-8/31/2014 (Eolian Islands): Burgundian in a way, light tannin, good ripe fruit, red fruits, fresh wine and drinks very nicely now. Elegant. 91
