Has an herbal edge out of balance with everything else -- the green vine flavor others have referenced. A shame, since fruit and tannins show promise. I expect more finesse at this price point. A pork roast with apple-tarragon-balsamic glaze worked to hide the tongue, but won't be repeating this wine.

Disappointing. Green/herbal as previously mentioned, just not a good set of flavors, especially at that price point.

Fairly herbal, palate is rather sweet, but green at the same time. They are masking a difficult vintage with sugar. Bit of a mess.
