The kind of wine I would be happy to have a glass everyday. Very smooth and welcoming after notes

Nose of red berries and vanilla. Very fruity palate with small red fruits. Quick finish. Salivating acidity. Food wine. We paired it with a barbecued chicken and the pairing was awesome.

Very berry-y. I like it though. Not too fruity and not too dry. Has the right ripeness.

Floral nose with light citrus aromas and hints of Granny Smith apple at the end. Grapefruit rind on the front of the palate and an unctuous flow over the tongue.
