So good. Just picked cherry and plum. A little cherry ludens and menthol. White pepper spice. Light, boujoulais character with a touch of Italian red fruit elegance. A complete wine, seductive and perfect to drink with a slight chill.

Nice rossese. Like a fleshier more peppery Italian style Beaujolais. With a bit of chill an excellent pairing with some chicken thighs cooked with shawarma seasonings. Acid maybe slightly lacking on the finish, but still nice.

Licorice, grapefruit, and straight up grass after it’s been mowed (I mean! What else you want me to say)
Velvety mouthfeel, well-balanced, a bit of an astringent quality like celery toward the end note. You know, it’s an interesting wine. There are many things going on.
Maybe it needs to open up a bit? It’s got comlexity in the end note but the front end is falling a bit flat for me. Nice mouthfeel, but where the oomph!
Letting it decant for a bit to see how it opens up
