Wine Description

This wine displays a deep ruby red colour enhanced by delicate violet highlights. The bouquet opens with vivid floral aromas of red rose and violet, followed by ripe red fruit notes of wild berries, blueberry, cherry, and plum, wrapped in gentle baking spice. On the palate, it delivers a medium body defined by crisp acidity, vibrant freshness, and harmonious, well-integrated tannins leading to a long, balanced finish.
