Surprisingly enjoyable and lively wine with a fruity and slightly sweet aroma, followed by a full bodied and supple texture. The undertones of dense cherries, raspberries, and sour cherries mingle together, with a accent of mulberries and licorice. The tanginess is medium, and the tannins are surprisingly low, making it a fabulous pairing for a variety of dishes, accompanied by cured meats and cheeses. A fantastic bargain for the price, with a long shelf life and a good balance of brightness and tannins. A nice surprise for those looking for a affordable and easy wine.
