The whiff of smoke gives the cassis nose of this wine an extra dimension. Concentrated and racy with a dangerous amount of energy. So juicy and vibrant with a long and very clean finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (9/2018)
Intense black currant, elderflower, gooseberry and grapefruit on the nose suggest a Scheurebe-Sauvignon meld, and notes of huckleberry, juniper, and sage on the firm but oily palate reinforce that impression. Even by Scheurebe or Sauvignon standards, this represents an audacious and blatant performance, not to mention a striking contrast with the corresponding generic bottling. Happily, a bit of grapefruit juiciness delivers welcome flux and refreshment on the sustained finish, where invigoratingly incisive black pepper adds to the pungent and piquant herbs and berries that were already so forcefully present.
