6.1

Strong seafood nose on opening - not unpleasant, but not pleasing. Heavy umami, oyster sauce / Worcestershire scent. Not off-putting, but against my taste. Note of rosewood, lamb chop, mushroom, heavily savoury and salty. Very acidic, medium bodied.

Loathed it, almost gravy like in scent and taste. — 3 years ago

7.5

Nose of spiced plum and cherry, ripe tomato. deep plum burgundy coloring. Low acidity, middle body.

Disappointingly unopinionated for the price point.

Update: after decanting, wine is much wider and more interesting. Spice and stewed tomatoes for the nose. Chocolate notes and boozy cherries. — 3 years ago
