Teroldego 2021
$35.00 SOLD OUT
/ 750 ml
Herbal from day one and mellowing with age, imagine drinking black tea with spearmint in the winter air. It is a meaty wine, in addition to showing bright raspberry and just ripe blackberry, there's a creosote/tar resin thing that I find to be delicious in wines like this, with tobacco, fennel, orange peel, and the skin of stone fruits. It's fresh and bright and weird and beautiful all at once.
