Tasted like nail polish remover.

Strong nose of bay leaf, cinnamon, juniper, with background notes of leather and dusty wood. Palate shows the same spicy and dusty notes as the nose, plus concentrated fruit flavours of blackberry and blueberry. Medium-bodied, with firm acidity and faded tannin. With time, the tannin continues to fade away, and the acidity becomes more prominent. This is a long way past its peak, but still enjoyable.

Heavy, not much nose but pretty good. Not spectacular.

used for cooking due to low rating given by WS. However, found to be a keeper. Light and earth is the right descrption. However great for AZ summer. Earthness gave it a tast of an old world wine.
