2013 Three Dark Horses G+T

three dh g+T 001Attractive label, attractive wine. My image doesn’t do it justice but hopefully I’ll fare better with the tasting note. A blend of Grenache and Touriga. Unoaked with a portion of whole bunches incorporated.

Has a lifted nose but for some reason I don’t find it that off-putting. It’s sweet, spicy and fresh as a daisy. Licorice and roast meats add complexity. Integrated yet animated acidity and some grippy but not grainy tannin. Snappy work made for early drinking. Charming imperfection. 89
