Smooth and sweet. Lasting flavor, paired with charcuterie + fruit and berries. Could be dessert wine for those that don't want a sweetness overload.

Decent. Different than expected. Needs some time to open up. Has some tobacco and dried plum. Still has balanced tannins.

Dining in the Florida keys presents limited options, I enjoyed this while on the water.

Floral nose. Robust enough to go with our Christmas tradition of onion soup!
