13.5% Made from the pinot meunier grape, helpfully described on the label as "pinot noir's rustic cousin." A young, bright raspberry red. Attractive nose: fruity with some structure and depth. Decent legs. Fairly fresh attack, then very mouthfilling on the palate with a surprisingly large amount of tannins. Rather odd, rather harsh finish, followed by considerable length. An unusual wine, for sure, but I'm not sure how attractive it ultimately is. Good?
