My Review: Lots of raspberries on the forefront part of the nose and also a mixture of dirty sock smell. The taste was barely there for me and again I was disappointed. I thought since this wine had such a great and weird nose it would have been a very interesting wines and it seems I need to train my palate a little to pick up on the miner more subtle notes in the wine. I thought there was definitely some cherry aspect but that is really all my palate picked up. It was mild obviously with nothing overly aggressive about, not even heat at the end which was nice.
On this occasion I tasted this wine on its own without food
