Fruity aromas but too acidic and a touch of Brett that dominated the experience.

Out of balance at this point, subdued fruit and challenging acidity. It was work to drink it, which is not the point of wine. I'll give it low smiley face score because it is young, but I am skeptical this one matures into quality.

2013 turned earth, smoke, dried fruit, classic burgundy aromas. Pleasing palate with savory notes and some red fruit. Somewhat austere but rather approachable for the youth.
