Tasting Notes
Medium ruby garnet, delicately underglazed, broad watery rim. Delicate beeswax on the nose, sweet bouquet, a hint of candy floss, cassis and licorice, delicate, inviting aroma. Delicate on the palate, ripe heart cherries, perfectly integrated tannins, lingers well, delicately extracted sweet plum fruit on the finish, all of a piece. Offers great drinking pleasure - and the best thing about it: this wine has incredible staying power. Drink/store +15
