Wonderfully bright acidity, red fruit explodes on initial palette. Lingering bite. Yum!

Tastes a little Zinfandel-like, super fruity, juicy and delicious.

We think this was a flawed bottle, as it was far better at the winery. No finish, just very mediocre. Possibly a bit of cork taint, a hint of wet cardboard.
