Medium soft ruby garnet color. Sweet tangy, plummy/grapy fruit, with a tiny bit of high-toned rock dust. Soft and ripe, with jiggly plum and very slightly prunish fruit. Unstructured and fleshy, in a loose sort of way. A tad bit of residual sugar, but otherwise a clean, pure, fruity finish. Medium full body. B-. Imported by Small Vineyards Selections.
An idiosyncratic journal of wines I buy from a mix of Internet sources and retailers in the Northern Virginia/D.C. area. Mostly inexpensive and moderately-priced stuff, reflecting my frugal New England roots. Cent anni!
