Blind Assessment

Balanced, fruit-toned. Lychee, almond, green grape, red wine barrel, cardamom in aroma and cup. Gently bright acidity; round, viscous mouthfeel. Quietly intriguing finish that leads with notes of lychee and cardamom.

Bottom Line

A lovely carbonic macerated India that highlights tropical fruit, sweet spice notes and a hint of wine-like ferment.
