 Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Medium ruby-red, with translucent edges. 

• Aroma: A bouquet of Bing cherry and ripe strawberry, with notes of raspberry compote, baking spices (clove, cinnamon), fresh rain on a forest floor, a hint of floral violet, and subtle earthy undertones. 

• Palate: Generous but soft dark berry flavors — strawberry, blackberry — layered with spice, gentle tea-leaf or Oolong notes, and a touch of candied orange peel. The mouthfeel is silky and inviting, with polish without heaviness. 

• Acidity & Tannins / Structure: Well-balanced acidity brings brightness; tannins are fine-grained, elegant, supportive rather than assertive.

• Finish: Long and complex — red fruit lingers, spice and earth notes echo, finishing with a lifted element that keeps it fresh through to the end.
