2021 Ossum Epiphanea
Mendocino County

Lambrusco-like in color, this wine shows bright red fruit aromas with a hint of sun baked pebbles. It is light bodied, but demonstrates more complexity on the palate. There are some soft fruit tannins, married with savory notes of dried herbs and faint salinity. The mid-palate has notes of cassis and cola while the finish fades slowly leaving behind delightful candied cranberry and dried cherry flavors.
