Yes, there is great wine being made in Georgia, and it’s not just at Frogtown Cellars any more. Here’s a spot on Tempranillo that’s got beautiful earthy spice over soft blackberry and black cherry fruit and proper American oak tones with age-worthy acidity to boot. This would easily surprise tasters in a blind flight of Rioja. A Platinum Award winner at the 2015 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition
