Tasting notes
Alluring dark cherries, redcurrants and crushed wild berries burst out of the glass while the first sip reveals a medium body, smooth texture and fine tannins. On the palate, there are seductive berry notes and hints of dried herbs which linger long on the tongue with an ample tannin profile.
