The retailer who sold this to me for a cut-price said that this was really unpopular with clients as it was too natural but I didn't find this to be natural. Think the problem with this was the severe lack of fruit at the beginning - way too acidic and tart with the alcohol at 14.5% coming through too strongly. With air it got better, more velvety purple fruit in a modern extracted Bordeaux style. Not quite up my wheelhouse but interesting to have tried this.
