KISMET (Touriga Nacional) 2021
KISMET - "fate or destiny.” Some of the best things in life happen when I least expect them (and am least prepared). I have found the secret is to be open to what the universe is telling me and to capitalize on opportunities as they are presented to me…continue to “pull life’s thread” and see where it leads. Have a darn fine wine and ponder what is your destiny?

Perfumed aromas of freshly peeled tangerine, stargazer lily, and blue fruit are followed by soft, supple blue fruit flavors. Floral notes dominate the finish. One would like to see more complexity, but what’s there is interesting.
