Admittedly a spontaneous duty free airport purchase. But the smooth simple quaffable Carneros style was just what I needed after a tough trip.

Really lovely to drink solo. A twinkle on the tongue and beautiful, warm, round, buttery afterglow. However we ate kidney bean burger patties with a lemon mayo for dinner, and it didn't pair well with the lemon flavour. Brought out a sharp taste, but as soon as the meal was finished the wine I first tasted was back! Enjoying it right now....
