Rustic Earth Wine
Terra is an earthy blend of wild apples, native Aronia berries, and local Vermont red wine grapes, namely Frontenac Noir, Léon Millot and Baco Noir. Deep, dark and surprisingly complex, this rustic fruit wine is woodsy and floral with a touch of bright berry acidity.

Bottle from their very reasonable cellar club. Cheapo, stemless, 6-pack from TJmax for 7.99 glass. Big, fizzy, pink head. Maroon, hazy, yet settled, rich, red wine. Smell is wild-fermented grapes, chokeberry, sharp crab apples, cranberry, astringent weeds as you pull them out with hate. Flavor is massively tannic, bold, tart, macerated skin & apple cores. Bitter, sharp, some funk but more just green, earthy, raw & uncultured. Finish is jammy with lots of cotton mouth. Frothy, thin, boozy, a numbing slap in the face. Basement wine with attitude. Great.
