PnP Nose reveals a little dark fruit with hints of some red candy and funkiness that I enjoy. Fair amount of rough tannins to make it interesting as the fruit is singular and simple. Decent qpr

The ratings swing on this wine's tasting notes suggest to me there is a stylistic preference rather than inconsistency in the wine. We thoroughly enjoyed the extracted, rough, and gamey style of this wine. Big fruit aromas and flavors up front with lots of earthy mid-palate flavors. Finish was a bit disappointing after the nice tannic backbone. Better food wine than sipper, but this was a very good bottle of wine.

The wine looks Ruby colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Blackberry, Forest floor, and Horsey. It tastes like Blackberry, Forest floor, Black Pepper, Tea, Wet Dog, and Horsey. The body is Medium/Full. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Long.

I think this bottle is past its peak, tannins still present and some structure, but fruit is very thin. I would recommend drinking up any bottles still in stock.
