More rose, less tar.

Beautiful and strong. Bright red fruit and a some amazing forest and floral notes. Brighter than Barolo would be, but still strong enough to be your baby tonight.

It's a baby though. It'll tear off your tongue's outer layer.

Ruby in color and extremely transparent. On the nose leather, violet, decomposed grass, and cured meat. At first the wine hits you with cherry menthol, then mellows out to cured meat alla beef jerky and finishes with eucalyptus. Good acid with firm tannins that finish with bitterness.

Nose of roses and wild berries on the vine. Flavors of dark fruit, cherry and oak induced complexity. Beats Nebbiolo's at 3x the price. Outstanding value!

Light easy. Like a bright light Pinot. Would buy a case at any price under $30 and use as a weekday wine.

Score reflects value for price.

One day I'll be too sophisticated to like it. I'm not there today.

Pretty supple and mellow. Currants, leather, lots of tar, dark cherry, prune, dried roses too of course. From Town Center Wines, Eastham.
