This smells and tastes like someone trudged across a field in their Wellies, stepped in every cow patty, and then went and stomped on the grapes to extract the juice. Either that or it has brett because this was also lacking in any real fruit flavors one would expect in an infant wine from a warm vintage.
I could smell it immediately after pulling the cork and hoped it was just reductive and the funk would blow off after some time in the decanter. No such luck. Avoid.

Earthy, I want to have this with some Beef Wellington. I think it would work well with the mushrooms.

Not bad. Just not exciting. Muted nose. Super saline on the palate.
