Popped and poured, consumed over about 3 hours. Light garnet colour, with a faint orange hue on the rim. On the nose lots of strawerry, some cassis liqueur, a little rosewater, all very ripe. On the palate a spike of acidity, some dark berries, earth, a little spice. Not very long, quite fleeting actually. Would rate higher if not for the extreme acidity. It puts it off balance somehow.

Quite ripe, dense sweet fruit. Still some angular acidity sticking out. over time this grows more creamy, strawberry fruit but still some acid out of line, needs more time.
