APPEARANCE: Almost tawny red colour. NOSE: Wild strawberries, aged strawberry jam, rose liqueur, cherry liqueur. (86p) TASTE: Like slightly concentrated strawberry and wild cherry limonade infused with some lemon rind and with a few drops of lime juice added. Mature and sweet but not without freshness and fruitiness. (86p) OVERALL: A rather mature Brachetto which still drinks nicely but was probably more interesting 1-2 years ago. Now primarily an after dinner wine. TOTAL SCORE 86 points.

A private lunch (Restaurant Nathan Outlaw **, Port Isaac, UK): Half bottle. Medium sweet, liquorous cherries and berries and flowers, slightly metallic acidity, more body than its light ABV suggests, muscat and green apple, uncomplicated finish, good length.

Rosehip pink, bubbles dissipated; raspberry pastilles; medium sweet, muted. Better 6 months ago.

Sött och pärlande vin med inslag av röda bär. Saftigt.
