Notes | "Transparent in color, with a nose that is equally light and airy, this is a crisp, dry, slightly oaky wine, with a hard-smacking palate. Red plum, raspberry, strawberry and currant flavors are subdued, and lead to a sweet-and-sour finish." (Wine Enthusiast) "Peppery red berry and floral aromas show good clarity and a hint of allspice. Lively and sharply focused on the palate, offering tangy redcurrant and strawberry flavors with a hint of orange pith. Finishes with good nervy cut and silky, late-arriving tannins." (Josh Raynolds, Vinous) | |||
