Taste
Rich ruby with a tawny rim, the bouquet carries the grapes’ signature notes of cherries, green herbs, prunes, and black pepper. In the mouth it’s rich and fulsome, offering a lovely blend of black cherries and berries with hints of almonds, bitter chocolate, warming kirsch liqueur and fresh loganberries.
