Saturday, November 2, 2013 - From pick-up day. Site has average temp of 72 degree and only saw 2 over 80 degree days all season.
Nose of lemon lime and citrus. Mouthful of tart lean fruit, bursting with bright acidity, saline and grapefruit. Neutral oak. Super delicious, silly 12.9 abv. Would have bought more had it not been sold out. Sensational effort.

I may add a Liquid Farm in order to make people REALLY confused.
I think A-R wines are treasures. Thanks for the great note!
