Haven't drank something so confusing in a while. Why would you over extract/ over oak a wine from grapes that produce such amazing delicate wines? This was designed to please the masses, which isn't a bad thing, but it's not jiving with me

Rustic sounds like the right description for this. Not silky smooth but that’s not necessarily bad.
