Acidity is the backbone structure in wine.

Warm days build sugar while cool nights preserve the acid, and the huge day-to-night temperature shifts you can only find at elevation are what lock in the uniqueness of Colorado wine.

They let grapes ripen fully without losing their edge.

You can lock in acidity at lower latitudes too; New Zealand. 🇳🇿🍷

Greetings from Portugal! We love our wines 🍷🍷🍷

Currently drinking:

(Not a great fan of of using sex to sell wine, but quite drinkable nevertheless)

Nice! Curious how it makes you feel after drinking it in addition to how you like the flavor

It makes me feel BETTER.

But I've gone through an extremely challenging last two days and I'm not in best position to give you a truly educated opinion on it.

I meant tomorrow morning kind of how does it make you feel.

Hope it helps you relax and enjoy the evening!

Not a great wine.

Just a cheap sales technique really, even though I have had good wines with funny names.

Tonight it's a steady, reliable Alentejo wine.

I was definitely judging by the name that it wouldn't be something that made you feel great after.

Not always the worst thing though.

Tonight looks like a nice level up

fascinating thank you

ohh so that means that a wine from x year had a good or bad harvest? it is a way to know what the wine of the year tastes like.

Not like that. It's more a consistent thing in a certain region, but only noticable in wine from winemakers who lean into their location instead of manipulating the wine to taste a certain way
