Tasting Note

The medium crimson hue has a dark rim that foreshadows the nose of brioche, potting soil, black fig, pomegranate and some red fruits scattered throughout. Flooding the palate, the entry is pure raspberry preserve with a hint of crunchy blueberry and strawberry on the mid-palate. The welcoming toasted oak on the finish rounds out the wine with a soft, lifting mouthfeel and a lingering note of cranberry and acid.
