Bell pepper, black currant and olive. On the palate it showcases menthol black fruit and medium body fruit and soft gental acidity.

Many years ago my wife & I stumbled across a restaurant in the Texas Hill Country that served this wine. We both fell in love with it because it encapsulated many of the nuances that we enjoyed: ripe berries, baking spices, and savory earth. Our palates have evolved since then but we still have a special place in ours hearts for this selection. It’s caused us to search intentionally for it, and we have had a hard time tracking it down in stores over the years following our discovery but managed to find a few here and there. Unfortunately this bottle was corked and had to be dumped, but we have another stashed away so we’ll see how it is. We’re definitely past its prime but who knows, maybe we’ll be surprised.

Citrus top note, light bodied, nothing special.

We absolutely loved this wine. Had it with Phil, Taylor, and Ben. Great bouquet. Clean finish. No bitterness
