Medicinal at first, with pungent eucalyptus, that over time resolves into bay leaf, inky black fruit, and bittersweet chocolate/oak. A nice change of pace.

The first CS tasted in New Zealand. Not too much surprise.

At first, I thought that was French wine due to the label. Then I found that was made in Chile. Maybe it has high alcohol. But we got strong hint of grassy, herb and capsicum.

Totally was about green character.

I think the wine is still young.

This drinks like a much lighter red - more of a Pinot-ish strength. Happy to have found - great "Tuesday" wine!
