Wine Enthusiast
This is a small crop from old vines planted in 1972 . hand picked
and fermented with its native yeasts. The grapes are more exposed
at Solstice making the wine rich in phenolics.
The wine shows
notes of peach and kiwi with a very subtle and delicate nose. This
is a solid wine with broad shoulders on the palate and some pear
and lemon flavors. The masculinity of this wine comes from a high
phenolic content combined with a 13.5% ethanol and a 1.14% Residual
Sugar. For all this, the wine is not sweet and shows perfect
balance. The wine is truly cellar worthy and will age for a very
long time (10 plus years).
The alcohol is
13.5%, acid 0.71%, pH is 2.89 and Residual Sugar is 1.14%.
Food
Pairing:

recommend food that allows the palate to explore the wine: cheeses
