Ruby red without a violet core, a bit cloudy perhaps unfiltered; austere with tart fruit on the nose and a touch of pyrazine-like notes; high acids and spicy on the palate with cranberries, unripe strawberries, and a fairly long gummy-worm finish. Elegant yet simple. 13.5% and 25 USD

Roganic at home, lockdown 2022. Days feel dark and we need to find a positive where we can … delicious food, good wine (super easy to drink: velvety, acidic, substance yet light). Need to see if they sell at Baker and Bottleman.

Aromas of ripe fruits, wet soil and herbs. Juicy texture with some light oak influence.

Ripe but sophisticated bouquet. Strawberry stew, sweet plum, clove, tomato, sagebrush and underbrush. Less fruity, more mineral palate with flavours of raw meat, iron, underbrush and sagebrush. Wonderful and demanding wine that without proper attention can be easily underestimated. Very young.

Big wine! Lots o berries n rich structure but far too young with a bit disparate flavours n a little aggressive tannins n acididi. Looking foreard to it in a few years!
