Delicious and a little dirty, spritzy, and tart; natty wine credentials with California amplitude. Short and simple finish, but this is a fun wine, harmonious, and knows what it is. Dry-farmed, old-vine Carignane from Mendocino, drink anytime, with anything

Cali new wave Carignane, ie, balanced. Fruit forward but not obnoxiously so--in fact, deliciously so.

Bam! Fresh zippy grippy goodness. Give me a juicy burger please. Had the acidity to handle the fat.
