California
I really like this wine. Will drink again.
The initial scent of this wine was earthy and perfume-like, followed by a "carrot-top" scent - it smelled like the greens on the top of a carrot. The intitial taste was a heavy earthiness mixed with a nice blend of fruit followed by a great mineral and oak finish. This wine is very enjoyable - plain and simple.
Hills blackened by fluorescent midnight blue sky,
One lone star twinkling softly up high.
Filled with lush summer green, or blanketed by winter snow,
Earth's presence is felt, though not seen, below.
