A very lively, zingy wine that will jolt your palate awake.Dark ruby with magenta highlights. Intense and zesty nose of ripe, crunchy berries and extroverted, almost overwhelming melted stone minerals. Assertive and very youthful in the mouth, with ripe but zesty, high-toned berry fruit, along with crisip acidity, some tannin, and a clean, minerally, refreshing finish. Very distinctive, this wine will pair nicely with simple, assertive foods. B+. Was $27.99 at Houston Wine Merchant. Imported by Kermit Lynch.
