Mendocino fruit gives the wine its dark color

crunchy acidity

This is a refreshingly crisp wine

This bottling has some age which has produced a touch of toast to add to the crisp

A full and smooth mid-palate will satisfy most consumers but the balanced acidity on the end will make you salivate and anxious to take another sip

Lots of licorice, mint and blackcurrant character. Medium to full body. Reserve and refined finish. Better in 2018. James Suckling, 95 pts
