Mirtillo – Texas Legato Winery; Lampasas, Texas

This semi-sweet blueberry wine could easily slip (or sip) past a wine lover as a traditional red wine.  It initially presents as an off dry but then unleashes it’s bold, big ripe berry flavors.  We’ve been told that the winemaker uses similar processes as those used for reds, which appear to have made the difference in helping this wine stand out among other blueberry varieties.  It has a wonderful flavor and aroma that could make a nearby bottle of red wine jealous. It isn’t a syrupy blueberry wine at all. For those that think fruit wines aren’t “real” wines, this one will help make you reconsider and then convert! A wonderful after dinner sipping wine to enjoy and linger over as you unwind after a busy day. We look forward to having more of this one!
