Fruit is not too far forward which I like, but character doesn't develop on the palate. Fairly one dimensional and a little sharp. May need to bottle age a few years.

Jun 15th, 2015Bought it since it was local (very) It starts off with pleasant and easy fruit, but turns a bit abrasive. Then ends with an oddly medicinal finish. Won't buy again.
