The most intriguing thing about this wine is its place of origin combined with grape. Criollo Grande from Mendoza. Yet the result is not fascinating. Simple nose and palate. Fermented berries, kōcha kinoko, and a red apple. Unexpectedly fresh, even crisp. But overall, a watery palate that lacks both depth and volume.
