Might just be the most balanced and elegant Lodi red I’ve ever had. Tart cherries and wild summer herbs.

Another nice red from Monte Rio, great value for the price point, more complex and robust, nice with a lamb dinner.

I love acidic wine but this is too much. Almost undrinkable by itself. Food takes the edge off. Slightly. Improved after a couple days in the fridge.
