I have no idea. At first I thought, "bad bottle." After a few minutes, I thought, "nope, just a strange wine." Astringency (think "old bandage") on the nose, but quite a lot of fruit on the palate. No idea what's going on here.

This bottle was quite a bit more drinkable than the last one. Rustic, high in acids but has a nice core of dried cherry and plum, hint of smoke. Went well with a baked spaghetti puttanesca.

Perhaps a little over the hill. Pleasant but nothing to note.

To sum it up: pleasantly weird. High acids with a lot of roasted stuff and dried black fruits. Finished the bottle, but wouldn't buy again.

Not impressed. Seems thin and overly acidic on the palate. Maybe this was an off bottle. Will try again soon.
