This wine is PALE ruby with medium (+) intensity of red fruit (especially after a short decant) such as fresh wild strawberries, pomegranate, stewed strawberry rhubarb, redcurrant, red and black cherry compote, next to iris, lilac, black licorice, fennel fronds, anise seed, white pepper, and crushed wet stone notes. It’s a lovely compilation of fruit, floral, herb, spice, and mineral qualities.
But don’t let the pale hue fool you, this wine is no shrinking violet when it comes to structure; it’s dry with high alcohol (14% ABV), medium, fine-grained tannins, a medium body, and vibrant acidity, making it incredibly versatile as a culinary complement.
