Sativa Mendocino Carignan
This is tasty. Good acidity, dense rich fruit and soft tannins. Very good food wine--had with homemade pizzas.

Jul 18th, 2017Probably the most exciting wine I've had from California or maybe the U.S. this year. Absolutely delicious, refreshing acidity with bright, soft blackberry fruit and the faintest hint of cassis on the finish. It's perfect. This is my favorite kind of wine.
