  Bright and clear ruby red core fades to a tea-like orange rim. On the nose, earth, barnyard, sweet tobacco, floral notes, and even a hint of plummy fruit remains. Gentle sweetness on the attack, followed by a silky texture that falls flat at the back of the mouth... it just sort of disappears. The flavors on the palate, such as they are, seem more advanced (and stewed) than the nose. We're surprised and pleased that this wine is drinkable at all, even if it's not great.
