AJ Gubser

Nose of black cherry, pomegranate, black pepper, iron, licorice, and something that reminds me of animals...in a good way. Very Bandol like. Palate is rich and structured with dark fruit, spice, good acidity, and somewhat bitter, course tannins. Alcohol is well hidden.

Rustic and wild, but still rich and complex. I really dig this style, but I understand why not everyone would be on board.
