star anise and a hint of smoke before finishing on an accent of coffee

wild herb and black-skinned berry aromas lift out of the glass along with whiffs of eucalyptus

Ovum 'Big Salt' Orange, Elkton, USA 2024 Maitia 'Roto' star anise and a hintIt has a sunset cranberry color that comes as a result of Pinot gris skins being blended with the tangerine hues of Big Salt. Its aromas remind me of a carrot orange creamsicle stirred into a cup of hibiscus tea, steeped with autumnal spices. Roasted carrot, ginger, red apple skin are on the palate.
