Crunchy flavors of strawberry, cherries and prunes backed by a bright acidity in this light red wine. A touch of white pepper as well. Despite being light bodied, this is not thin at all but but luscious and silky textured and just a hint of tannin. Also present are some salty, earthy minerals, and a subtle bitterness. Satisfies all my cravings for bright, food friendly wine without a hint of funk.

Wintergreen and tea berry on the nose with a touch of cherry lozenge; sanguine and herbal on the palate with a touch of charred orange. Light and racy.
