Clear, medium ruby
Clean, med+ notes of black pepper. Might be fooled into thinking Northern Rhone (also triggering a Susumaniello response), unidentified red fruit ontop of deep dark gnarliness.
Dry, medium acid tannin . Body is in the acid driven lean category. Weight of a Beaujolais @ 13% ABV. Red fruit and pepper. Holds its own as the black pepper in the mix of celery root, parsnips, Dittmer’s smoked turkey (oh yeah) and even kale. Cote Rotie of Chile. Rockstar.
Kick ass organic old vine and natural Cinsault (90%) wine from Chile. Could lay down 1.5 years.
NOTES: ”Located in the Guarilihue district of Chile's Itata Valley, Rogue Vines is one of the relatively recent producers to make expressive, organically farmed, minimal intervention wine. Cinsualt is abundant around these parts, and oftentimes dates back to the 1940s so they are nicely mature. *Natural Wine*” — 6 years ago

This wine is Menhir Pietra Salice Salentino Negroamaro. 2016. This doesn’t come up on the Delectable list. first had this Jan 2020 at a Feast (Tucson) tasting. Had this bottle June 2020. Full bodied, ripe red fruit w/ baking spices. Nice complexity. Medium-long finish. Excellent PqR. Will definitely have this again. The Pietra Susumaniello is also very good. — 5 years ago
