Occasionally wine is a gateway through which you access the past. Normally rose tinted and pined for so the wines that trigger it are probably beyond objective evaluation. Holidays and memories are within this wine's range. Violets, white flowers - heady and ethereal on the nose. The palette finds these flavours diaphanous and wisp-ish but also laced with cassis and Vit C. Juicy and crisp on the short lip-smacking finish. Close your eyes and your somewhere else. Eyes open or closed this wine lifts you and reminds you why you drink it.
