Winery Review: Organically and naturally grown and made, this wine allows the varietal and the terroir to stand out cleanly. It shows a nice cherry color with a violet shade because of its youth. Red berries and cherries on the nose. On the palate it is fresh, slightly astringent, and harmonious with a long finish.

My Review: On the nose I smelled berry aromas, particularly a cherry scent. This wine tasted very rich with a SLIGHT hint of cherry but not like it was in the smell. This wine was interesting and I’d probably want to try it again before making a decision on whether or not I like it.
