TASTING NOTES

Big Salt erupts from the glass with a mélange of citrus – bergamot, flamed lemon, sweet grapefruit.  Salty white tea aromats are interlaced with pithy lemon before a waft of alyssum hits your senses.  Classic Big Salt on the palate – racy acidity combined with beeswax-y textures before finishing dry. Big Salt pairs well with fish tacos, pesto chicken pasta, pad thai…or just chilling. -Winemaker's Notes
