Winery Notes:
Bright orange-pink. Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel and honeysuckle, with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pith flavors and a suggestion of rose pastille. The floral element comes back on the finish, which lingers with very good spicy persistence
My review:
This wine was light pink, and smelled of yeast. The wine also smelled floral and citrus, specifically oranges. The taste was unexpected and very bitter, with kumquat undertones. While the wine smelled better than it tasted, it would have tasted better if it had not been so bitter. This wine was tasted without food, which may have contributed to the prominence of the bitter taste.
