From the Winery “Bright violet color. An exotically perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red berries, incense and cola, with a peppery element adding vivacity. Smooth and seamless on the palate, offering sweet raspberry and floral pastille flavors that tighten up in the middle. Shows very good definition and fruity thrust on the subtle, long back end, leaving an echo of spiciness behind.”
