Deep ruby. Tobacco and earth on the nose. On the palate velvety and well balanced. Medium acid, full body, blueberries, herbs and black pepper. Bright and fresh, would never know this is 14.8% alcohol. Drinking great with an hour decant. Incredible wine.

Deep blackberry jam in glass. Mild nose with floral hints, earthy tobacco and dark berries. Big acidity red berry fruit, cherry tart and earthy on palate. Tannins developed. Look forward to see how this evolves.

Slightly murky plum color in the glass. Volatile rustic aromas--soil, foliage, stems. Very sedate entry. The wine seems quite smooth on the tip of the tongue--no fruit flavors until farther back on the tongue. Then I get an array of stone fruit. Then I notice the very apparent tannin. Under the rear palate I get sensations similar to the nose--soil, stems. Not really mainstream, but a very enjoyable wine.

Deep ruby. Red fruit and earth on the nose. On the palate high acidity, full body, high tannin. Cherries and herbs with some leathery notes on a long finish. Still very tight and tannins are driving even on day 3. Really well made wine and great fruit but will save my other bottle another 10 years.

Reminds me a lot of some Portuguese field blends I've had in the past, in terms of the fruit and tannin structure
