TASTING NOTES
Color: Deep purple with a clear blade. See through and free of haze and sediment
Nose: Old world & rustic, this is more on the complex and earthy side compared to the conventional fruit flavored wines. Dry earth combines with fig and dried carab fruits to make this a more cerebral wine. Wild violets and lavender dance elegantly with a slight mint note. A faint hint of cinnamon and clove wrap this up with a gentle kiss of dark cherry.
Palate: Medium-heavy bodied that leads with stewed fruits and texture. The mouth feel is pleasant as the silky texture surrounds your tase buds. Warm and bright, the wine is nicely balanced without being on the tannic ide. Soft and pleasurable, the wine finishes with a red fruit and slightly oaky finish that lingers and tantalizes.
