Gives heavier body and big fruit flavors — think berries and wine — sometimes with a fermenty edge. Varietal: Pacas Notes: Chocolate, vanilla, red apple, & syrupy About: We travelled up the rocky slopes to get to Manuel’s farm. A horse stood in the middle of the road. The horse whisperer, Benjamin, moved the huge beast off the road. Higher and higher we climbed until the outline of the wet millWashing stationA central mill where many smallholder farmers deliver cherry for processing.
