Samr

Rich, full-bodied wine with a deep, dark ruby hue, complemented by a sophisticated character of white pepper, smoked meat, black plum, bacon biscuits, and blackcurrant. The texture is featured by a bold, intense spice and black fruit and berry flavors, accompanied by a smooth, plush texture. Overall, a well-balanced and sophisticated wine with a satisfying finish.
