Bink 2007 Melange Red (Yorkville Highlands)

Country: US / Melange
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Bink / Yorkville Highlands

It’s a Cabernet-Merlot blend from this highland appellation, inland from Anderson Valley in Mendocino County. The big drawback is excessive acidity. It’s harsh and cutting, and interferes with what seem like pleasant blackberry, cherry and currant flavors.
