Earthy and wild, the nose seems to have some feral things going on. It isn't quite squeaky clean, but there's plummy fruit in the mix, and the palate has velvet and lushness that's appealing. Furry tannins dry the finish, and it has surprising length of flavour.

Plenty of rich earth and five-spice coming through on the nose, to color the aromas of dried strawberries and herbs. Soft and quite milky on the palate with a round texture and impression. Drink now.
