Deep purple-red with legs like a rainy day. A tart nose at the top of the glass and waves of plum, cranberry and light citrus on the tongue. Some oak and leather umami in the mild and clean finish. Damn me, I just don't think this bottle is worth the money.

Ripe red fruit, hints chocolate, crisp green vegetables, getting some lactic acid maybe, can't seem to place it?
