Tasting Notes
rusty ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Fine woody spice on the nose, delicate hints of honey and cinnamon, cloves, fresh strawberry fruit underneath. Clean on the palate, somewhat broad-meshed, remains fresh, rather tart and drying overall. Promises more on the nose than the palate is able to deliver.
