So fresh, so alive. Kirsch, and underbrush. Lively acid, with a chalky finish. Just a lovely wine

Aroma is pretty and floral, with red and black forest berries, blueberries, savory herbs and leather, black pepper and black tea. Medium acidity, medium+ tannin, and a clean mid length finish. Has a degree of complexity and elegance that punches above its $15 price tag. Looking forward to trying more from this producer.
