Translucent ruby in color, with a nose of mint and lavender as well as umami hints of nori and stem ginger. Orange peel also present, as is usual, akin to sticking your nose in an Old Fashioned cocktail, angostura bitters and all. A pomegranate, bright cherry mid-palate balanced by a refreshing sweet and sour red currant/cranberry acidity. The wine finishes with fine grained, chain link tannins that keep it all taut and exciting, pulling one back for another look.
