Cherry, earth, some cola, raspberry, medium acidity, low tannin. Not overly complex and definitely quaffable.

On first opening the bottle there is a kind of a funky smell I can't quite pin down; earthy, musty, moss(?) at first but it tastes pretty good, fruit forward- maybe it's the exotic earth tastes of New Zealand.
