Yes, lemon and bisongrass (with 1.5 oz), with some dryness from the wine, but not much more.

Wowee!
Remarkable!
Made a triple batch to share with my boyfriend, and skipped the sugar syrup.
Instant new favorite!
And to think that I only discovered it while looking for a way to utilize an open bottle of Malbec :)
