Red.
Vinturi - fragrant, refined nose - woodsmoke, wilted herb, breakfast sausage, raspberry and menthol. Subtle and RFG.
Round, seamless, middle-weight. Sneaky acidity lifts and brightens. Herbs, sausage and raspberry flavors are also subtle and have deceptive length. '97 was hardly a great vintage, but this is beautiful stuff.
$50. 13% listed alcohol.
