Sample
A funky, barnyard dominant nose with charcouterie and dark berry fruits.
The wine enjoys a layered structure with a drying but fine baseline of tannin and a tautness of acidity that is a good counterpoint to what is a fairly agricultural palate that is more gamey and leathery than one would expect for a wine of its age.
It's not without its charm but will polarise some drinkers with more of a european / hermitage bent to it.
