juicy purple fruit (blackberry?) with iron ore and smoke; like a fresh Northern Rhone bistro syrah, which is a compliment as long as you're not expecting more complexity

Funky, youthful nose with a medium intensity. Aromas of blackberry, grass, tobacco, brett, lavender, mud, band aid, stems and animals.
Medium(+) body with a medium(-) acidity. The tannins are really austere, stemmy and all over the place. Medium intensity with blackberry, grass, violets and brett. The finish is medium(-).
Reading the other TN's on this wine this bottle must have really off. Totally off-balance and austere. Hence no rating.
