TASTING NOTES

Color: Obvious with beguiling rose from the glass. 
Aroma: Notes of wild forest strawberry, ripe cherries and raspberries can be discerned from the merest whiff of this delightful wine.
Palate: Dry, precise and moderate on the palate. The tannins are very understated and provide the necessary structure.
