Community Tasting Notes 3

  October 28, 2017 - Hazy, pink/orange color.
  
  Initially funky and reductive but a short time of intensive swirling and that problem is solved. Rowan berries, red currant, raspberry, rosehips, bergamot and tea leaves coming through.
  
  Medium bodied with medium(+) acidity and no tannins at all. Tart, sappy red fruit with hints of bergamot and bitter orange. Decent intensity and rather short finish.
  
  A simple, quaffable wine with some funkyness to it. Drink sooner than later.

  September 22, 2017 - Stinky, stinky, stinky, with high VA. A great example of a natural wine (no sulfur etc) that goes too far and hides the fruit and everything else that one should taste. Lovely color though.

  December 22, 2016 - Second bottle I've consumed of this without taking notes, but I wanted to at least stop in and say that this wine is awesome. It's incredibly light on its feet. It pours almost like a rose. It has incredible freshness and vibrancy all throughout. Very lean and exuberant with unique flavors and crazy intensity on the palate and finish. Incredibly persistent and so juicy, with a "natural" bend to it. Love this wine!
