A wee BloodyPulpit:

  1. This is the 2’nd Troon wine I’ve tried, the other being a white Rhone blend. They are a “natural” wine producer, I believe, but their wines have been clean as a whistle and show no natty character whatsoever. This wine was showing a lot of mature character for such a young VM.
