The recently released 2020 North Slope is better than expected given the challenges of the fires in the area that year and resulting lukewarm reviews. Beautiful creamy pink/purple in color, it’s jammy with a nice effervescent raspberry acidity rippling thorough. Bright and very drinkable if not complex.
