TASTING NOTE: An unusual blend of Corvina with the rare grapes Oseleta and Croatina, this wine has a lifted violet floral note and suggests a wealth of mixed dark fruits, plum and cherry with underlying baking spice, coffee and savoury tones. Ripe, round and balanced, this is drinking very well now. (Vintages panel, Oct. 2016) Price $ 16.95
