Interesting, dark and nicely funky. Sort of a cheesy mature, ripe, red cherry and plum, some vegatal tomato hints as well. Palate is medium bodied, juicy with strong acidity and firm tannins, nice ripe red plum and currant fruit. Nice tasty long currant finish. Very interesting. Probably not to everyone's taste, but was interesting enough for me.

A little brett on the nose but then celery, smoke, sweet pepper; may not appeal to some but I like it. On the palate dark sweet morello cherry, tea, ash, olive, light not dense or complex but tasty. Finishes long with integrated dusty tannins and juicy acidity. This is in a much better place than the 1st bottle I had 2 years back. Drinking good now but should go a few more years.

Smell of Tca and funk even after three hours. Could tell underlying wine may have been good
