Pretty funky, but not in a bad way. Meaty, tannic, a bit rustic. A tinge of metallic, fruit is fading. Definitely interesting, but probably time to drink up.

This wine still has some life! Once the funk blew off with some decanting it is actually very nice. There is still some fruit and nice soft tannins. Very enjoyable.

Loved this at first sip. A little bit of funk in the nose gives way to grilled meat and olive tapenade. The palate is a little rustic, but also deep, rich, and chewy. Brambly fruit, bright acidity, and a notable herbal slant. Potent, tangy, and dry. Finishes a little rough, but softens up with food nicely. Holding up nicely for its age, and far from falling apart.
