-Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg
My Review: The most notable thing about the nose on this wine was that I instantly salivated, so maybe that indicates high acidity (?). Not so much fruity as vegetative, almost like a sauvignon blanc. Strong front pallet
of something grassy, but intensity mellows off with an easy finish. High heat at the attack on the front pallet.
Tasted without food.
