TASTING NOTES:
Torrontés - “Succulent stone fruits and dreamy aromatic herbs are the delightfully bold notes that characterize our 2021 Torrontés. Flavors of bright honeycrisp apples, sweet lychees, and geraniums that have just bloomed round out the palate and have us reaching to pour another glass.” (AbV 13.3%)

Gratia - “As we harvested the Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon from Aguirre Vineyards, we knew there was magic in store. However, it wasn’t until the Chardonnay was ripe that we knew how wonderful our 2020 Gratia white wine blend would be. These grapes harmonize beautifully, and notes of tangerine and apricot are highlighted throughout the glass, along with hints of floral orange blossom, spicy jasmine, and fragrant thyme.”
(AbV 13.1%, 45% Sauvignon Blanc 45% Semillon 10% Chardonnay)

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
The X-Men have quite the varied cast of villains, many of whom have a tendency to flip-flop from bad to good and vice versa, depending on who they’re fighting for at the time. Some of them never really have that level of ambiguity to their character, however. One such individual is Arkady Gregorivich Rossovich, more commonly known as Omega Red.

Once a serial killer, the man was subjected to various experiments in an attempt to create another Captain America-like super soldier. The process gave him superhuman strength, durability, agility, and reflexes. His ability to heal from injuries was also enhanced, and just for fun they implanted malleable, nigh-indestructible metal tentacles in his arms that can suck the life out of other living things. Those tentacles also turned out to be slowly killing him, unless he does the whole suck life out of people thing. This inherently vampiric/parasitic existence on top of being a literal serial killer have made him very well-suited to the path of villainy.
