cherry, raspberry, smoke and kerosene (not unpleasant, mind you). a fresh woodsy. palate expresses a little spice, subdude by the rich fruit character. smoke and ash. kerosene as the green sheen on the swamp. again, swamp as grassy. really quite nice and i'd gather best 5-6 years from vintage date.

Dried fruits of figs and cranberries along side leather and earth aromatics. Flavors of plum, marionberry and coffee which finished with sour cherry and earth. Very easy to drink.

Light to med body, notes of cherry, raspberry, redcurrant and red plum. Slight spice and dustiness to the wine as well. Med tannins balanced by med high acid. Not too complex but pleasant to drink.

I gotta tell you -- the cheaper the wines are from the winery the better.
Here, smokey, woody with some medicinal notes to it. I prefer "Quatro Mani" to this at the same price point.
Reversing myself from previous anaylsis, I think I may like "Spelt" better than this.
