750ml bottle I bought in Greensboro, pours a clear greenish gold with no head. Looks like natural wine. Nose has a lot of fruit, there is a clear stone fruit character, cherries, plums, pluots, some grapefruit juice, some funk. Flavor is tart with lime and raw plums, lots of plums, cherries are there but they are white. If there is some ground berry, then it’s very under ripe. Finishes tart, medium-high acid and basically dry. Very easy to drink, good complexity.
