Really thought provoking wine. Shows how having Brett in your wine does not have to be a negative.

Texturally it starts very smooth, like a well-polished gem, but softens in the glass. Smells like salted hibiscus and those freeze-dried full-sized raspberries from Whole Foods 365. Tastes like cranberry concentrate, red current, white lilies, and warm, spiced orange peels. And yes, that bit of brett, and all the mysteries left to ponder by this "Reverse Saignée".

Gorgeous, astringent, full bodied rose. Dark, burnt rose colour. A bit of Brett, but let's not get carried away. A little Kombucha, if you know what I mean.

Like eating tart apricots & ripe raspberries in the tack room at a recently mucked-out stable. A beautiful wine.
