  Aromatic and dynamic, spicy, pepper, milled mahogany, mint, currant, and leather nose. Very flavourful with excellent replays, structure and balance; very good length with dill and toasted wood notes.
  5/5

  Appearance- medium+ viscosity, medium garnet color.
  On the nose- immediate candied fruits. Candy, lavender, anise.
  Palate- More funkiness than expected. Mushroom, cherry, and anise. Medium- body and medium- acids. Medium- tannins. Light oak and some citrus.
  Finish- smooth finish but transition to bitter flavors quickly. After a minute, a very strange taste develops upon exhaling that is quite unpleasant.
  
  This wine is weak in some areas and strong in others. Flavors don't blend perfectly either. Would probably be best not as the first bottle served at an event.
