Earthy nose of garden soil, pencil lead, and thyme, with hints of sour cherry and blackberry. Light-to-medium-bodied palate, earthy and dry, with flavours of dirt and graphite. Closed, tight hints of berry fruit, green herbs, and fennel. The apparent earthiness is due more to the lack of fruit than to the presence of any strong earthy flavours.

m+ depth garnet, clear. clean moderate nose: dark plum, some spices. moderate palate, fruity, some spices and oak, light smooth tannins. light bodied, m- finish with fruits, spices and subtle cream and chocolate.
this is a pure and clean table wine, the best vintage ever, offers very good quality under very good price (NZ$12). NW 2014 Gold.
Ap 4/5, Ar 12/15, Palate 16/20, Overall 3+1/10 Total 86/100

Very raw. Bitter berry juice. A total robbery at 16 euros.
