2020 Post & Vine Mule Plane Vineyard Carignane


 A lighter nose of cinnamon candy and cranberry juice. Some white pepper and darker plum notes emerge. 

Light and lively on the palate, with big acidity. The flavor of Red Hots carries from the nose as do the tart cranberry juice and additional pomegranate and white pepper-flecked red plum and barely ripe red currant. So, it's quite red and very high toned. 

For me, this is the perfect wine for a Pinot lover seeking to expand into other varietals. It's lively and crisp, but I believe would be well suited to food vs enjoying alone. It's pretty, lively, balanced and bright. Light on its feet, it'll dance around your palate in point shoes.
