Tasting Note: Beautifully perfumed aromatics combine with mulberry and ripe strawberry fruits. The palate is bright and lively with vibrant fruit and texture. Mulberry and red currants dance across the palate and a lively acidity contributes length. Made without a heavy hand in the winery, reflective of when and where the fruit was grown.
