Spicy strawberry and Bing cherry with some nice funky fresh forest floor. Made by a crazy Frenchman from 100+ yr old gnarly bush vine Carignane.

A little underwhelming but I'd pop open another bottle to retaste any day. 2013 vintage.

2012 Villalobos Carignane - pretty straightforward, a little grip on palate, pretty short finish. Sipping wine.

Alpine strawberries grapefruit and cherries, light bodied, with a little bit of tannins. Great salinity and clear acid. This would be a great red wine to drink on a porch in the summer.

Sour and spice, everything nice. Light colored, light bodied wine with short finish. In the nose wet granite. Palate black pepper, sumac. Good wine, I’m just not a big fan of sour.

The winemaker of this wine is a sculptor who got paid for some of his work in land, which happened to include wild, uncultivated vines that eventually produced this very pleasant, earthy and fruity Carignan. 12.0%.

Wine # 5 on National Wine Day is a Carignan efrom Chile. A bit wild and animalistic but rather simple.
