With this wine, I immediately get clay minerality and some exotic citrus.  I have experienced wild ferment Chardonnay before, and this one is more manageable.  You taste more aspects of the clay soil in this wine and the undercurrent of the citrus begins to rise with the finish of this wine.  Yes,  I know that this sounds weird, but as you finish swallowing, the citrus actually builds and increases.  Acidity is strong, but not overpowering.  Color, is light yellow.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
