Lagrein – 2015; Southold Farm+Cellar; Fredericksburg, Texas

“Trust the Pain” is the label name on this Italian varietal. One of the many unique wine labels created by the owner of this winery! This bottle was from their original location in New York state before relocating to the Texas Hill Country.  Sourced from North Fork of Long Island AVA, this very dark colored red wine is quite rich in berry aromas.  The flavors are dominated by plums and cherries with a touch of tangerine.  There is a leathery sensation that will envelop your palate followed by a hint of spice.  This full-bodied red wine has good acidity and a pleasant finish. A well made wine collection from New York and we hear that the Texas wines are also doing well, too.  Cheers!
