Tasting Notes
Ruby red color.
The bouquet on the nose shows notes of ripe, sweet fruits, like raspberries, plums and cherries.
On the palate, sour cherry, raspberry coulis and soft tannins create this very approachable wine with an abundance of tangy red fruit and a savory spiciness.
Refreshing acidity on the finish.
