Tasting : The wine delivers a very attractive red ruby
rim, with an appealing nose of fresh red fruits such
as strawberries, cherries and
brambles. On the palate, the wine is soft but very
well structured, enhancing the fruit flavours on the
palate. The finish is very
fresh making of this wine an easy drinking bottle that
can be enjoyed along with food but by itself also.
