A very nice example of this experimental variety in California. It’s very dry, with an enticing dustiness that carries subtle flavors of cherries. The tannins are soft and easy, yet complex, and turn grippy on the finish. A fine interpretation of this Spanish grape.

Great blackberry and mocha flavors in this dry wine, but it’s so hot and soft in acids, it’s unbalanced. The softness acentuates the tannins, making the wine harsh.
