Early Mountain Vineyards Young Wine Red 2022 Review
Early Mountain continues to show how great wine can be in the state of Virginia. They are leading the way in sustainability and working with varieties that truly thrive in their soils. Like this Vidal Blanc and Chambourcin co-ferment blend. It has a big, grapey, juicy nose that will casually draw you in with the slightest hint of savory pepper. There is a good balance on the palate with concentrated medium fruit and well-integrated tannins.
