Receipt from The Wine House
After looking around online for places to purchase Marquette wines while visiting California, it turned out that, while preferred wines from Wisconsin and Michigan weren't a possibility to get shipped, there _was_ a store (The Wine House) in Los Angeles who had a Vermont Marquette wine in stock, so it wasn't especially out of the way when flying into LAX.
And April was looking around for these options because of having had a good experience with the previous Marquette wine she had tried in the past. So this is a grape that April seeks out, whenever possible.
When at the store, April was directed to people in the store who, after being shown the printout from their website, led her to the wine.
But that's not this wine. _This_ wine was because, after having drunk a fair amount of Rosé wines in the past that wound up being quite good, figured it'd be interesting to try another. And, in this case, to try another favored, but easier to find grape.
Tasted on the last full day (Friday, July 21st, 2023) on a business trip to southern California.
Tasting Notes
April - Bit of a wet dog smell. Tastes... tight? Kind of a weird, bitter taste. Long bitter aftertaste. There's enough odd here that it might be interesting to try again, but... I think there's not much that I like about it.
It's not watery, though. I do wonder if this would gain fruitiness over time.
