Aromas of black cherries and plum with herbal spice notes. Extra dry. Light mouthfeel with slightly edgy tannins. Tastes of juicy overripe plums with some smoked meat character.

Buttered apples, pear, and citrus aroma. Dry stone fruit taste with silky mouthfeel and a longer apple-pear finish.

Medium ruby drawing towards the brick. Soothing aroma of ripe black cherries and smoky raspberries. Medium-light body of juicy berries with a touch of barnyard. Soft mouthfeel with mellow tannins and a medium length finish of stewed berries and lastly gentle acidity. A very enjoyable tipple.
