We used to go wine tasting years back with a level 2 Somm who used to describe a highly complex, deeply pungent, earthy wine as Nasty! This was one of the biggest compliments that he would give a wine as he smiled and took another sip. To me, this is that wine - Wow. Bold, bold Temp/Barbera blend. Deep, dark fruit, licorice, sulfur, blueberries and tons of earth that make this nasty in the best sense of the word!
