My favorite of the 2013 bunch! This is the Levante, which gets only Morning Sun. What a bright and vibrant wine! Pencil shavings, black berry is definitely present, but lots of herb and oregano and vanilla, with very bright acidity. Again, a very young wine with lots of potential for aging. Probably my best of the 2013 lineup. Need to become re familiarized with these, since I will be pouring them on Wednesday! :-) what a treat!!
