You’ll like the linear intensity and deeply penetrating notes of almond skin, cola, root beer and wild spice that keep your senses alive and refreshed. The balsam notes give the wine lift and buoyancy and promise a wide range of pairing possibilities, from pasta to grilled meats. The mouthfeel is toned and tight with loads of fresh fruit.
