Fleshy, dark fruits but niether a lot of particular aromatic character nor a lot of textural interest for me.

Vibrant ruby/purple. Crushed blackberry nose. Distracting level of CO2 on palate entry. Tasty, not very complex, may develop in bottle, but concerned about the CO2 which doesn't dissipate with a decant.

Lush tanat. Such a good wine on a cold night in front of the fire. Meaty, heavy fruit forward, earthy camp fire love.

Reminded me of a new world gamay. Beautiful pepper spice and red fruit. Lip-smacking acidity. A fantastic wine that evolved beautifully. A little expensive for sure but I think it's definitely worth it.
