Enjoyable. Robust despite the low-alcohol European style. Easy, approachable, and hang-over free. Would get again.

Taste with Tenzing at FHE.
Really nice styling. Bright juicy sexy fruit with nuance. Some spice, and mocha.
Great texture on the palate. Lots of fruit but harnessed.

Tart red fruits, a little wild, with a good streak of acidity.

This is still developing and initially seemed disjointed and volatile. After 24-hours of being open this beautiful wine started to show herself. Boysenberry, tarragon, wild orchid, river stone and coffee. Bright acidity and more structure than last year's. Wait at least a year, because this just seemed off and under-developed. 91-93 points. Drink 2014 - 2018.
