Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Ruby with aromas of ripe berries and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of wild cherry and blackberry with herb spice, medium body with rustic tannins. Medium finish ending with ripe fruit character. Good value, drink now while it’s fresh, no aging benefit.

Запах пыльный и спиртовой поначалу, сдержанный, но в нос бьёт, вкус довольно яркий, и кислотность, и танинность, чуть сладковатый, но как будто недостаточно сбалансированный. В целом норм.
