TASTING NOTES:
“When popped and poured, the Lily of the Valley florals and deeply aromatic esters erupt out of the glass with the most delicate of force. The effervescence eager to be set free, it delivers with a cloudburst of ripe peach and other stone fruit, enchanting the utmost reaches of the palate. Instead of the wine continuing on with enveloping levels of overwhelming sweetness, it makes an acute turn in the direction of spritely acidity.” (AbV 9.2%, pH 2.95, TA 7.0 g/L, RS 45.9 g/L)

BARRELS:

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
Recently released, Animal Crossing: New Horizons features the return of most of the series staple characters. This includes the Able sisters, originally two seamstresses named Mabel and Sable. In City Folk, however, you can visit a fancy clothing store managed by a woman named “Labelle.” Turns out she is a third somewhat-estranged Able sister, and her real name is “Label.” Her boss just called her “Labelle” to make it sound more fancy.

PAIRS WITH (winery recommended):
Spicy and sour dishes, such as Korean barbecue or various curries.

OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option):
A pseudonym?
