“The wine is fragrant and perfumed with notes of cherry, oolong tea, white pepper, sage flower, fall spices and hibiscus. Silky smooth on entry with a drinkable approach this medium bodied wine glides across the palate with integrated tannins that highlight flavors of cranberry, red plum, rose hip and cardamom.” Winemakers notes
