SKUNKY YES! Let it breath for 1 hour and it will dissapate. You are left with aLovely, velety complex red. Tobacco, earthly and absolutely lovely sophisticated wine. Drank for our 37 anniversary and was well worth the wait.

Sweet skunky open nose with nice aged elements, green elements mixed with black fruits. Firm tannin and high acid. Blackberry and currant present themselves in a dusty manner. Needs food.

Just enough TCA to ruin what otherwise appears to be a magnificent wine. Would love to taste a correct bottle of this.

Classic Mourvèdre but smooth with age and deep round favors
Lovely
