Brambleberry and leather. Great winter-y wine with a bit of juice on it.

Clear, bright garnet in colour showing clove, wild strawberry and red currant notes on the nose. The palate is light and juicy with some lovely subtle chalky tannins that keep it well poised in the red wine (rather than rosé) camp. Pretty decent length. A great reminder that natural wines don’t have to be flawed (and shouldn’t be when crafted by a professional).

Delicious. Light body, pale color, tart raspberry and strawberry on the finish, balanced really well. When it is a warm summer day and you don’t want a white, this is a good choice. This is the first time I’ve had an Argentinian wine. I will have to search for others from this producer. 2017 vintage.
