Tasting Notes
Bright ruby red with purple hues. Aromas of wild red fruits and boysenberries, with lifted notes of aniseed, lavender and violets: plus subtle, warm nutmeg and cinnamon spices. The palate is medium bodied, with fresh red fruits and delicate, powdery tannins. The wine finishes bright and spicy, with a lovely dark chocolate powder and mineral finish. - Winery Note
