September 13, 2017 - This is my first of six bottles. This COULD HAVE BEEN really good, but there was noticeable Brett from the outset, both on the nose and the palate. The fruit was overwhelmed by this funk. Consuming with food later, the Brett was less noticeable. Still, I'm not going to score this one now. Half the bottle is left, so I'll see how it is tomorrow.
No improvement the next day, so calling it...DOA.1 person found this helpful 2,104 views
