Bought this wine because it was 'biodynamic'. There's an undue sympathy for wines such as this; people seem to believe that because they're 'eco' in whatever sense of the word, quality comes second. Well, sorry but this is wine. And the Gran Cerdo (Spain, NV) is so pitifully acidic and dark-fruited you'd be better off buying a Co-Op fairtrade cab sauv or something. Disappointing.

Deep red, dry with fresh acidity. Big and juicy.

Post yoga wines always seem to taste better. Raspberries and rhubarb with a dry finish. Great with cheese and charcuterie. Love the label.

Blackberry, briny, chewy, balanced. A natty wine that goes down fast with a slice of Carmine's and Bobs Burgers.
