Some people will relly like it, some would not be huge fans of this wine (Andrew I beleive you would be in this group). It does not taste like typicall Frankovka, it has more tannins from Andre, but the hard feel comes from Frankovka. Although it got seal of aaproval from AWC vienna, i gave it only 82. The problem is in recent months we opened wines from 2000 to 2004 and I cannot rerally accommodate young harsh tannins as my palate got used to soothing aged reds:)
