Wine Profile
Winemaker Notes
This is a gentle and delicate wine that has the wispy softness of a long, flowing scarf. Its red fruit profile is accented by a hint of earthiness. While writing these notes, I poured myself another glass. And then another. It would pair well with pork tenderloin, poultry, and mushroom risotto.
