Tempranillo with 60% whole bunch carbonic maceration - now that's pushing the dial with the variety and your taste buds are the winner. A great wine from Storm King Wine Co.
The list of interest just rolls out with ease. Sour red plums, sour cherry, dark cherries, red apple skin, raspberry rope, sarsaparilla and cola. Woah! The use of carbonic maceration elevates the mood adding an electric vibe to its presence. Earthy with a textural presence feathered throughout the mouth, it is softly spiced and rides long. Red apple acidity features on an excitable finish. Initially, I thought some more weight would complete it but it fleshed out beautifully on day two of tasting. Give it a little time or a decant to watch it blossom.
