Feb 4th, 2020Amazing wine. Very well balanced, low acidity, lighter-to-medium bodied wine. Blackberries, red apples, blueberries, with weirdly enough, a barley aftertaste. Could have benefited from a higher alcohol percentage to really bring out the tannins. But amazing nonetheless. Paired nicely with a hearty pasta.
