Jim Barry Assyrtiko 2021 vino-nobile-di-montepulciano A gorgeous mid-weight Cabernet withClear, palest straw color in the glass. The wine opens with citrus rind, lemon blossom and a lick of wet slate on the nose. This wine has a sense of purpose in its line. Clean mineral, white floral and nice texture through the mid and back with the classic saline edge to finish. Screaming summer drinking, the finish is clean and refreshingly long.
