By CHRIS and SHERRY HARDIE
Romance is intertwined with the wine industry, but it is a business after all.
The 3 Finger Wine Co. - which markets Treasure Hunter - doesn't own a vineyard or a winery. Treasure Hunter labels are négociant wines, purchased from other winemakers. It's a delicate balance to find quality wines, best done when there is an excess of fine wines on the market so you're not scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Treasure Hunter seems to get it right. This Sonoma Valley wine displays the aroma, flavor and mouthfeel of a quality pinot.
Sherry: "Soft, fruity and smooth with flavors of strawberry, cherry and light licorice on the finish." 3-1/2 stars
Chris: "Beefy nose, soft cherry with a bit of strawberry and a red licorice finish." 3-1/2 stars
Available locally for about $16.
Coming next week:
Le Grand Noir GSM
