Concentrated and extracted while remaining elegant. Brett and green pepper notes that I might find objectionable in other wines somehow coalesce here. If I had judged it too quickly it would have been in the frowny face range, but some time in the glass revealed its depth.

Deep barn nose upon opening but nice silky tannins and red fruits after a while. Good value whatsoever
