with earthy Amarena cherry fruit in spades

I know it would be overkill for breakfast

as bartenders ketchup

a blend that utilizes the high clay content of the former to provide structural mass and the limestone-rich soils of the latter to introduce mineral tension

You'd think it was hilarious if you were drinking some ti' punch made from this or were using this as part of a zombie

2018 Puro Rofe, Tilama, Lanzarote Designation_VdF with earthy Amarena cherry fruitThe Puro Rofe project was spearheaded by winemaker Rayco Fernandez who then assembled a like minded team of grape growers to showcase the unique terroir of Lanzarote. This cuvee is from 100 year old organically farmed vines on black volcanic sand, just a few short km from the Atlantic Ocean. Whole clusters are crushed by foot in stone lagars with a short maceration and then fermented aged in French oak barrels. Only ~700 bottles made!
