Azores Wine Co. António Maçanita Isabella a Proibida 2017
Isabella is a hybrid of Vitis Vinifera and Vitis Labrusca that was a mainstay for and#39;house wineand#39; productionandnbsp;on Pico after phylloxera hit.andnbsp;Antonio Macanita rescued an old plot of Isabella on volcanic basalt to make the lone red bottling of Azores Wine Company. With its bright cranberry and red currant fruit, modest alcohol level (12%) and focused acid streak, this quaffable red plays well on its own or at the table.

Tart. Salty. Agree with the grape candy/sweet tart notes tasters mention. High acid. Isabella from Azores. Very unique.
