Score 91/100 · Josh Raynolds, Nov 2010
(25% whole clusters) Vivid red. High-pitched aromas of redcurrant, strawberry and blood orange, with a lively mineral quality. Tangy and precise, offering sweet red fruit and floral flavors and a touch of bitter herbs. This comes in at 14% alcohol but seems far lighter. Finishes on a resonating note of wild strawberry and with impressive precision.
