Difficult tasting of that wine. Very present sulfuric smell when opened up. On the nose there are some fruity notes but they get overwhelmed by the sulfur. On the palate some taste of cherry with a decent amount of acidity. Medium finish. Overall the taste is quite enjoyable once the sulfur has disappeared.

This is the most unusual wine I have tasted. Originally bought several bottles in 2018 and drank 3 bottles during the first 6 months. My ratings went from 89-90-91. This bottle was the best yet. Nose has an off putting sulfur, barnyard nose which blows off in the glass. The taste is hard for me to describe, acidity on steroids , no fruit to me, green olive, but I love it. Wish I could be more descriptive.

This wine needs a lot of air before becoming drinkable, barnyard funk on the nose. This actually tastes a lot like a cayuse syrah at a much lower price. It evolves into a very interesting complex wine, highly rec.
