Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Ruby color with aromas of red fruits, floral notes and spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and jammy strawberry with floral, tea and spice. Fine tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and a slight earthy spice character. Drink now, no aging benefit.

Ludens, a little volatile, Cherry syrup, acid and lacking any complexity. Will cook with it.

This was better than expected. We had this at Oracle Park in San Francisco, home of the SF Giants. I was pleasantly surprised that this was not a disaster!
