Tasting Notes
When the sequel to a movie you adore finally comes out, it reaffirms why you love the original. The cast (vines) sure are a little older, smoother, and more complex. There are a few new characters and clever plot twists (new vineyards and varieties). But that overall feel of overlying tension and edgy spiciness that previously had you smitten are still much in evidence. Of course with this sequel you actually get to pick the exotic location, the romantic lighting, and how long it lasts yourself. Better purchase a few, you know you are going to repeatedly binge-watch them all (vertical tastings).
