WineSaint
Medicinal herbs and sour cherry create an intriguing, almost wild character on the nose. The palate crackles with nervous energy. Bright acidity drives tart red fruit and citrus peel while fine tannins provide gentle grip. There's an appealing rustic quality here, less polished than Bea's structured bottlings but charming in its immediacy. Drink 2024-2032.
