New grapes from a lightly trodden geography for me. What a weird and fun drink. Nose is dark fruit, but the palate showed almost none of that. I’ve never used pencil in tasting notes, but I couldn’t ignore it. Lead pencil, cigar box, tobacco, spice with hardly any fruit. Not sure what’d I’d pair this with, but was fine on its own. Maybe a touch too acidic without food.
