Brett and black rocks on the nose. Palate starts with pure cherry juice then falls off a cliff into tart cherries, bit of heat and a bitter, tannic finish. Disjointed, not sure if this will come together with time.
Best nose of the flight, red cherries and flowers. Quite primary on the palate, but complex and delicious. Red cherries, strawberries and a hint of earth. Nice supporting structure. Wonderful.

Reticent nose, bit of baking spice and smoked meat. Light bodied, medium acidity, damp earth, subdued black fruit, some tannins. Nice balance.

Cinnamon on the nose. More on the palate to go with tart cherry fruit. Light bodied with high acidity that's a little out of balance with the fruit.

Reticent nose, hint of brett. Savory palate of earth, iron and just a bit of tart cherry fruit. Interesting.
