Mulberry funky earth.

Forest floor, sharp at first, mellows with time. Not much in the body, or is it overshadowed by the Sahara desert tannins on the finish? Lingering persimmon acidity.

Solid not spectacular nice cherry flavor but a bit hot with alcohol. Definitely taste the Verdot on the back. Like a smiths brother cough drop in a good way

Even more fruit and layers than the Altesino. Broad fruit, some syrah flavors and a nice dry finish. Would get again.
