Nose comes across with herbs, anise, vermouth, stewed black cherry Palate was a little confounding to piece together, picked up mocha, vanilla, fresh green redwood/conifer branches, oily burnt wood Interesting direction, but would expect far more at $75 USD. Good.

Color is ruby red (great transparency). Nose is earthy, but tannic as it is a young wine. Flavor profile is light. Finish is pleasant with trace plum flavor. Very earthy wine. Not South American wine earthy, but a fruit earthiness.

This bottle was flawed. I have hence updated this review as I was lucky enough to be able to taste this again.

This was terrible. One of the worst bottles of wine I have ever tasted. This bottle retails upwards $70/bottle.
It is very light and tastes as if I am chewing on a piece of grass possibly used as a toilet for a local dog. This does not get better in the decanter and actually perpetuated the spur lemon grass taste.

Very light ruby in color. Tannic notes but fruit is mellow. Would pair nicely with fish.
