Tight, pinched, devoid of charm. Before I abandon all hope and pour it away, I engage in some amateur Chaptalisation. That at least makes it drinkable, if still unlovely.

Unlike my previous bottle, this is a balanced wine with no lack of fruit. Medium bodied, earthy, quite grainy textures giving good mouthfeel and a long and satisfying finish. A mature wine, in its prime I would say. vg

Earthy, musty nose. A little too much acidity, or a lack of fruit, quite tart and pinched. Slightly corked I think.
