Medium bodied, musty, and dry as an Egyptian tomb. Dusty tannins plus good acidity. Not exactly polished but has undeniable rustic charm. (Jan 2017)

Just retried a second bottle (Oct 2017). More polished than my notes above suggest. There are still bottles of this floating around the system. At $14, this is good value. I think I will pick up another.

3rd bottle (May 2018) - the one I bought above. Quite overwhelming "barnyard" aroma. Still good acidity and quite smooth, but I have downgraded the rating. Oddly, quite a good match for some bad General Tao frozen chicken.
