Tamlyn Currin, December 2024 (Vintage 2022)

Despite the 20% Merlot, this tastes Bardolino-like – unmistakably a wine from Lake Garda. It has that ping-bright, fire-engine redness of fruit, that nip of dill-and-mint herbs, that little scratch of rain-wet-gravel stoniness. The tannins slightly chalky. It has a long, cool, quenching minerality that reminds me of cold, clear water on a wide stretch of pebbled beach. It's ineffably drinkable. Because it's that time of year as I write this, I'm going to add that it will be bloody brilliant with turkey. But it's the kind of wine that will pretty much go with anything, any time.
