  Light bodied. Juicy red fruit with bright raspberry notes and lingering tartness. Red fruit and acid sounds simple, but it has to be in proper balance.

  Light red, slightly hazy. Delicate and sweet nose of light red fruit, grapefruit. Light, refreshing, definitely red-flavoured but feels like a white with lively acid and a little sucrosity. Another unusual and interesting wine from Bechthold.

  Light and refreshing. I've become a fan of Cinsault as a varietal and Birichino's Bechthold Vineyard Cinsault is definitely worth buying. Purchased at Birichino's tasting room in Santa Cruz.

  Brief note. this is my first experience with this wine. already a fan of the grenache and i have to say this is even better.....great fruit, lithe on the palate. nose seems dense but this is not overdone....great.

  Decanted. Lovely, if young. Possible up score in a couple years. Great QPR. Mid- body, mid+ acid, 12.5%
