It is intriguing to find unexpected notes that seem contrary to the color of the wine - like finding wild strawberries in some white wines. But why not, right? It's nice that wine can contradict and/or exceed expectations in such ways. Wonder what the orange peel will have turned to in 2020... Thanks for the comment, Sasha.

I'm always intrigued to find those notes in red wines. Have only had wines from the Bierzo that are relatively young so am curious to see how they would age. Will check back with you in 2020!
