Ruby red with a tinge of purple hue. Vegetal note with cedar box in nose, cherry pit, raspberry flavors with a hint of cranberry, notes of white pepper, herbs and spice. Length in the fruit and spice flavors but not in your face; assertive but not bold, autumn like in the flavor profile. Good but light level of acid, soft but with a tannic bite in aftertaste on top of palate and side of cheeks. Ripe black plum in the aftertaste. A lot going on here in terms of the senses. A fun wine to sip and reflect upon. Glad I’ve got another bottle tucked away for another day. After 24 hours, fruit and spice had receded somewhat, but spearmint abounded in the nose and mouth.

Lovely color. Lighter and lithesome. Woodsy scent with an incense and cedar vibe with elderberries. Flavors are elegant and classy. Bright. Has an old school medicine tonic vibe.

Decent CF, not my favorite. Wanted a little more from this one though, a little more depth.
Second day: noticing now this is pretty light in color. Both my mom and I wanted more out of this.
