This is just what we all need. Something original, yet still delicious. I could chug this wine. Though geeky in it's very existence, it's a drinkable beverage in it's soul. Just drink and enjoy, it's only about $20. Shut up and pour it in a tall glass.

The role of wine as a beverage sometimes gets forgotten; this is a wine that aspires (I assume, being presumptuous) to be that and nothing more, and it does that well. It's a wine I would reach for all the time.

Don't think of this as Sangiovese. Just think of it as refreshing wine that's going to go with your dinner, pretty much whatever it is. A go-to with a light chill with summer supper.

Perfect summer wine, you could even serve this slightly chilled. Low alcohol, nice acid, and a light beaujolais body. #stolpman #ballardcanyon
