Another super interesting wine by Deirdre Heikin. This blend is 90% Marquette and 10% La Crescent. Two northern american grape variety and the wine shows that non vitis vinifera varieties can make very good wine. The nose is a bit foxy at first, and the taste is then very interesting, good acidity level, slightly sour, notes of herbs and berries but still very round. This profiles definitely reminds me of alpine wines such as Mondeuse or even l’Etraire de la Dui, although these are vitis vinifera.
Sign of a real good wine: this bottle only got better on day 2 and 3...
Great job by pionneer La Garagista!

Juicy dark fruit with the sourness of limes. A little astringent on the nose, in a good way.

Really an interesting wine. First time having something from La Garagista. Gently aromatic, very mild tannins, slightly sour, some berry notes. Fun one to try.

Delicious in the cold barn by the vineyard tasting room, rain falling outside, they brought us hearth rugs. Tasted like the Iraqw once-upon-a-time: "I remember something that our father told me..."
