Geeky wine. Very dark earthy tones dominate, red clay, peat, some stemmy quality on the nose. Palate is fresh, high acid, very rustic and earthy tannins that linger on the roof of the mouth but with no huge grip. So much tipicity.

Lime, pepper, flower nose - herbaceous, floral, acidic body, finishes high acid / citrus juice. Not my favorite but it was weird and bright/juicy and interesting. Not well balanced overall and I grew tired of it pretty fast.

Smells like Double Bubble bubble gum. Pale purple color. Acidic, plum and lime-y flavor. Soft like cashmere.
