tôt ou tard

Fermented tomatoes, blood, and Nordic berries with warming spices dancing around. Lovely acidity but lacks the body to back it up - though that's expected from the variety, isn't it? There's something about overripe berries here, that edge between fruit and decay. The wine feels too young, caught in adolescence. And yet, it's ridiculously drinkable. The kind of contradiction that makes you pour another glass while wondering why. Pleasant confusion.
