Popped a second bottle a year after my last note. Nose of strawberries and dirt. Flavors of strawberries, blackcurrants, and green leaves. Turns thin and acidic on the midpalate/finish.

Rough on the edges. Pitch dark ruby. Big nose, sumptuous. Deep and lush, no bullshit, but young and restless. Very stiff structure. Strong tannins. Dark fruit. I respect Bonarda. Blind, may fool me for tannat, the way this wine is structured.

A quick burst of dark fruits covered in earth followed by bitterness and tannins.

This bottle tastes a little sour. Light tannins. Medium legs. Probably need to drink soon.
