Simple but appealing and honest light and low alcohol, floral when it opens up.

A bit tight upon opening, this benefited from some time in the glass. My bottle had a bit of CO2 which dissipated pretty quickly. Wine opened into bright cherry and marzipan flavors after an hour or so.

Light juicy and not too much alcohol. Needed a vigorous decanting. Would benefit from a little more structure and acidity but very very drinkable indeed.
