Raul Perez 'Ultreia' Saint Jacques 2018 Review

This wine smells like cherries and all the cooking herbs (rosemary, oregano, tarragon etc.), wrapped in a cozy wool blanket your grandma made for you. It has a depth that you’ll want to enjoy by a fire with some grilled lamb and crusty bread. It’s a bit funky (like a faint must) but not so much that it isn’t enjoyable.
