  Loved it! Leathery/stone fruit on the nose, nice bitterness/volcanic/rocky mouth, with a strong finish. Would love a case of it!

  But avec le saumon en croute sauce au vin, poireaux et fromage.
  Nouvelle étiquette pour ce classique de longue date.
  Nous est apparu plus léger et un brin mince comparé aux autres millésimes du passé.
  Nez sur les épices, le sang et les petits fruits rouges.
  En bouche, léger avec une belle acidité. Des saveurs de cerises surettes et de thym avec des tannins légers.
  Finale courte mais sans accroc.

  Dark ruby and good with nice fruit, salinity and mineral finish. Medium-weight. Very good with the food at Emmer & Rye, Austin TX. Props to Emmer & Rye for a well-chosen wine list.

  100% Piedirosso. Clear, medium ruby. The nose has an interesting mix of tart red cherries and raspberries, ripe plums, smoke and tar. The palate is very dry, with medium (+) acidity, medium tannins and medium alcohol (12.5%). The palate is consistent with the nose but also exhibits a pleasant savory minerality. This wine does not see any oak, but has an inherent smokiness due to the varietal and/or the growing conditions on volcanic soil. It is light to medium (-) bodied and is probably best when consumed with food. It is drinking well now and should continue to show well for at least another year.

  Couleur rubis pâle. Le vin est un peu abrupt à priori, mais il se calme rapidement à l'aération. Peu concentré, ce vin tiré du cépage Piedirosso présente des saveurs de canneberges et de griottes.
  L'ensemble est plutôt équilibré, mais court.
  Un peu trop cher à 23$
