Very poor cork - mould on the top and the wine had seeped into half the cork causing it to crumble on opening. Cloudy rust red in appearance. The nose immediately after opening is subdued with just a little dust. In the mouth the fruit is subdued and sour. Quite vegetative. Soft weak tannins. I'll give it one more chance after an hour or so of air. After three days this wine mellowed out and started to grow on me. A lot of terroir and not a lot of fruit but somehow nice.
