Grapey and lively. Tastes manufactured, but there it is. Actually, as it opens up, it harmonious more. Comes around the bend.

By the glass. I do not understand the expectation of some colleagues for this bottle unless they consider the price as the decisive element. CS concentrated, with lots of fruit in the form of black berries and wood. Consequently structured, tannic and spicy in the mouth. Without depth, it is a full to medium-bodied wine with a drying persistence. For those who really adore things like this. Por copas. No entiendo la expectación de algunos colegas por esta botella salvo …

★★★½ Un vin gagné au bureau En ce vendredi de lendemain de brosse, gros 5 à 7 au travail, je décide de passer la soirée tranquille à regarder activement quelques séries télé en dégustant un petit vin intéressant.

Merci! ★★★½ A wine won at the office On this hangover Friday …

This had some significant secondary fermentation prickly spritz. Enough so that I had to recork it and shake the hell out of it. That helped a bunch as this started out nearly undrinkable till my shake. That aside, this still lacks balance and interest. Oh well, just coming off a cold, one glass was really the right pour size tonight anyhow. I'll pass on anymore of these.

Fruit forward. Finish was very quick and peculiar. Can't beat the price.

Kind of raw and a little bitter, not much depth. Maybe just needed to age for a couple of years.
