M. Christopher Roebuck

Probably the worst wine I've had in a year or two. Trying to decide if this decanter will help. Deep purple color, nose is like a chemicalized flower with over powering alc (I get it, it's big at 15 percent, and it's young). In the mouth it's a bitter mess, try adding Dawn dishwashing liquid to oaky juice. Tannins are very unpleasant. Might work paired with a stick or grass fed butter and a side of fat back. Not what I have come to love from Tinta de Toro. For the polar opposite, grab a bottle of Vatan.
