Was supposed to have this with pasta at Italian restaurant. Couldn’t find a parking spot in congested and COVID opened National Park area so went to our favorite Thai place. Somewhat overwhelmed by the food but here it goes. Color was more than Rose, closer to protective red-orange used in plastic bottles for vitamins. Beautiful fresh nose of strawberry and red apple. Some orange citrus. Expected some flint or minerality but I think the chili in the food masked any other tones. The palate was similar however the tannins as well as a good acid base were still present. Nice long finish. Would love to try with a more subtle cuisine or by itself.

Was a bit off, not sure if it was the bottle or my storing of it.

Wonderful and fantastic like all my previous bottles. Raw pure succulent drinking pleasure. Rounder and more full than my previous bottles...

Gently sweet and then abruptly real phenomenal! Pair with Chinese: beef, duck, sea bass, prawns.
