Wow, what an interesting wine.. Couldn't quite get my finger on the aromatics. What I gathered was: earthy, orange blossom, tea, vegetative, fennel and downright fun.

Quite the value. Very balanced... a little earthy, a little fruity, somewhat bright. Very nice for the price point. This could be my house wine day in and day out.

Im lifting the average score for this wine and I think it’s deserved. I get slight florals and fresh funky herb aromas, red and blue fruit on a medium body with nice grippy tannins and an acidic punch. Lotta complexity for a bottle at this price.

Starts with a tart plum, hits fig notes, and had a very earthy, dirt finish. Could stand to open up a bit, but a delightful wine.

Got it a day late, but still tasty. Super fruity with a soft finish.
