Nose was popping with bright red strawberry and cherry fruit, hints of orange peel, baking spices and floral notes. Aromas jumped from the glass. The silkiest pure red fruit on the palate with juicy acidity and a silky mouthfeel and finish. Very impresed with this and drinking fantastic right now. Wish I had more in the cellar.
