WTN: Hold On Loosely?

by David M. Bueker » Thu Jul 27, 2023 7:43 pm

  • 2019 Extradimensional Wine Co. Yeah! Mourvèdre Hold Me Tight - USA, California (7/27/2023)
    Going on two years since I first had this wine, from the inaugural Yeah! release, and my first vacation (in Maine) since the onset of the pandemic. It was an out of body experience. Tonight it’s at home, life is normal(ish), but the wine is still transportive. This time it’s to a Marrakech spice market, with multicolored displays and vibrant aromas of cinnamon, citrus, tobacco, leather, and vaguely illicit incense. Linger too long in the smoke of the incense, and the spirit gets lighter, set free to hover over the bazaar, and then fly over the peaks of the Atlas Mountains, set free from the rough strands of earth.

From the title, was wondering if it might be a note on a Loosen wine. Always guessing!

I also guessed Dr. Loosen.
Always guessing, seldom right (better at Wordle than I am at Bueker)
Still haven't tried an Extradimensional (had a couple Dirty and Rowdys)

Tells you what I think of Loosen - I didn't even think of that linkage.
