Oct 2nd, 2024Color of purple, a bit dark with blue and gray hue on the rim. Quite clear. Nose is nice, with dark fruits, tobacco leaves, ripe berries, some strawberries, and strength of alcohol. Taste follows the nose with addition of bitter rind, quite light with nice strawberry and grape note. Good tannins with with lingering fruits and spice and peppery note. Refreshing and tasty.

Mar 21st, 2022This was not good. Big disappointment. Not sure what happened or just bad bottle. Tasted over cooked and gamey but not in a good way. Fruit didn’t come through and ugh.
