Not a whole lot in the way of backstory to this one, except it’s been getting good press. And everyone I talked to says ‘Stick in the fridge for a bit.’ So I took it with me on a recent visit to the country estate, and enlisted TE and MT as extra special guest commentators. […]

Domaine Lampyres Anima 2022, Roussillon, France
