Blind Assessment
Bright, richly sweet-tart, fruit-toned. Pomegranate, dark chocolate, lilac, almond, amber in aroma and small cup. Bright structure with juicy, vibrant acidity; plush, creamy mouthfeel. Sweetly tart finish with leading notes of pomegranate and almond. Crisply chocolaty, floral finish.
Notes

A lively, juicy-bright natural-processed Costa Rica cup with inviting fruit and floral notes throughout.
