Not my cup of...
At 15%, it’s fairly balanced but still, at my age, it’s like going into the mosh pit- but less fun. Black fruited, wood monster roars on entry but gets tamed as it airs out. I thought would meet head on a Chile oil tomato base fish, & didn’t do badly. Still, any bottle that has its WS score on its label should be enough warning....

Muscular and assertive hulk of a wine. Ripe black fruit, spice and oak and (kind of) balanced but blood and game notes. An old world-er for those who favor new world wines.
