Talking About the Wines:

​

-Dr. Owen Bargreen, Oct ‘21 gave 91 points to 2020 Harria (white).   “This beautiful, bright and high-acid wine shows off lighter gooseberry and pink grapefruit tones with salty and nutty accents on the palate. Nicely textured, enjoy over the next few days while the great core of freshness remains.”
