Sacred Thirst tasting. Another double plus from today. Two from this producer. Dominique likes this vintage. Only uses concrete on this from start to finish. Tasty and a deal.

Dark, lacquered fruits. Soft, but with adequate acid. I'd guess this is what purple would taste like, if you could taste color.

Pottery soil, pea tendrils, mushrooms, wet rocks, clay, black cherry pits, iron. Excellent acidity/soft velvet tannin balance. Juicy mouthfeel, mineral driven with long earthy finish.
