Consumed over 2 nights. Weak cherry nose. Very lean brief fruit. Tart, acidic and tannic. Simple and sour. Not an appealing wine. Alcohol 13%. Would not buy again. 👎

Soft, chewy finish with smokey bramble undertones. A touch of leather from a natural winemaker, not to mention easy on the eyes :). I meant the wine of course.
