We asked for “structured” and we got structured. High alcohol comes through the minute it hits your nose, but a whole lot going on underneath - checks boxes for fruit and spice and some of the woodsier stuff too. Not the most memorable wine on the night, but one that whoever made should be very proud of.

Mislabeled on the menu I think (advertised as a brut), and as a result sweeter than I wanted it to be. Nothing off-putting, but also not much in the way of body or anything particularly interesting going on for me.

A very delicious fruity but not jammy red blend - blackberries and maybe some cherries, not too much spice. Very balanced and tasty while maintaining unique flavor.
