Nose is red currant, tobacco leaf and stewed plums which is all very pleasant but there is a vegetal undertone that’s not ideal, but not a major problem.
The palette is focused and mineral, with good earthy notes and savory vlackcurrant to finish.
I wish these winemakers would stop using corks. They really do ruin otherwise good bottles of wine.686 views
