Bhakta 27:07 Brandy

"This Chardonnay shows great depth of flavor

But shockingly

I don’t know how they do it

No one is naïve about the difficulties and challenges of growing Pinot Noir away from its home in Burgundy (even there

a dusting of sea spray - pure and delicious as a cocktail but simply magical with all Mediterranean cuisines

and a hint of cedar smoke

and gone far too quickly

it opens with red currant skin

or simply enjoyed on its own

reminiscent of a Poire Williams distilled in the Voges Mountains just behind Alsace

it sums down to one golden rule – the place matters most

Beneath all that joy sits the depth of 80-plus-year-old vines
