Tasting notes
Bright ruby in the glass, this wine opens with aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, and cranberry, layered with delicate notes of rose petal, subtle spice, and a hint of earth. On the palate, it is elegant and finely textured, offering fresh red fruit, silky tannins, and lively acidity. Gentle touches of forest floor, clove, and a whisper of oak add depth without overpowering the wine’s purity. The finish is graceful, savory, and persistent, with a refined mineral edge.
