Wonderful ripe red and black hedge fruits soften the tannins and highlight the exotic flavors. This easy-drinking red wine can be enjoyed with rustic farmhouse dishes, fine charcuterie, your favorite pizza or a good cheese burger. RRP: 12.40 CHF Mountain Red 2019 - Thelma Mountain Vineyards Thelema Mountain Red is what you would call a second wine in France. Gyles Webb has tightened the criteria for the barrels that make it into the Thelema range so that the quality can be further increased and the quantities available reduced. The barrels that didn't make it are now found in the Mountain Red. This cuvée is soft, fruity, round and overall a little more accessible than its single-varietal namesakes. Aromas of warming spices and ripe mulberries combine perfectly with ripe plum tones to create a gentle and easy-going wine. The icing on the cake is its extremely convincing price-performance ratio.
