I don’t in general think I like purple wines, & boy is this purple. But if a Cru Beaujo had a love child in Austria, hippie style, this would be it. All sorts of wild blueberries & raspberries, a slight effervescence (?), but some how tamed. Enjoyable.

Dark purple. Dark fruit on nose. Restaurant served chilled. Black cherry, plum, blackberry on palate; kind of jammy.

Light ruby/purple color. Aromas of ripe red cherries and red berries along with red flowers. Juicy red cherry flavors with slight touches of bramble and minerals. Lively and crisp finish. Soft tannins. No sign of oak. Sensing carbonic maceration as this wine reminds me of a young Beaujolais. Quite fresh and bright. Named for the winemaker. Can handle a chill. Refreshing.
