Granville Wine Co, Basalt Chardonnay 2023 Whiskey Tempernillo

Tempernillo

almost ethereal Pinot that is lovely lightly chilled

A peppery freshness opens up the palate

but firmly in the herbal corner

featuring raspberry and bitter cherry fruit flavors given clarity by firm but harmonious acidity and a pronounced mineral component that is very Le Ragnaie-like
