Medium Ruby color with aromas of fresh berry fruits, floral and earthy spice notes. On the palate flavors of strawberry and cherry with cigar box, cedar, citrus and earthy herb notes. Well balanced, savory fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with slight earthy notes. Nice value!

Fantastic wine that opens quickly. Perfect for a night-cap at 7am on Tuesday after a long night of custody battles with my ex.

Raspberry jam. Pairs well with a toasted peanut butter sandy on whole wheat. Try it, try it now. Toast said bread in Irish butter if you know what's good for you.
