Light acidity, medium tannins, and good body. Nice ripe red fruit forward wine with a hint of earth, tea, and tobacco undertones.

Pretty tasty, piquant acidity, a vibrant blend, a little frazzled still

This wine confounds me -- sometimes I love it, sometimes I find issue with it.
Sure it's supposed to be a Chateauneuf-du-Pape inspired wine but man does it taste like a Beaujolais Nouveau to me -- big on fruit right off the bat and barely settles down.
Like I said, I'm of two minds about it. Love Kunin overall so I'm definitely not knocking it, just feel like there's something happening here that I'm not getting.
