This reminds me of a Loire Gamay. Gobs of tangy berry fruit leaps out of the glass, with a bit of spice and lots of high-toned cracked stone (almost limestoney) minerality. It’s zingy and bright in the mouth, with lots of bright berries and a bit of spice. Fluid textured with little to no tannin, it’s got zingy acids and a cleansing finish. Very fun to drink.

Simply delightful and delicious. Fruity, with plenty of acid and texture to be enjoyed solo or with food. Gimme more!!

Light bodied with bright crunchy red fruit. Eminently drinkable.

Count me impressed. Dark, slightly cloudy, deep red color and beautiful, deep, rich aromatics of bramble, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and wet earth. Fruit aromas are dark, almost black, raspberry and dark-but-a-bit tart cherry. Alcohol is perfectly balanced; tannins are fine but slightly rustic; and, acidity is bright but nicely balanced. Finish is long. Too bad I didn't buy more bottles.

Peppered Jam and flowers. Lacking noticeable depth. Sometimes you just got to hit the easy button.

Pure, limpid, delineated and prob some other words that are just as vague but also make my Pavlovian mouth water.
