Light, feminine, austere. Nice for the price.

Color of light cranberry juice. Nose of fresh berry note, a bit spice, violet, and some rose pedal. Taste of similar fresh berry note, light with some substantial but soft acidity, silky, cranberry, a bit flowering or honey note, a bit vanilla, and indeed some noticeable tannings. Aftertaste of some more flowering note, a bit zest and bittersweet. Light yet enough flavors to raise her above average.
