Tasting Notes

The nose presents layers of blueberry, orange peel, pastry cream, and hints of cinnamon. We recommend decanting and allowing the wine to open up for no less than 15 minutes. Layers of strawberry and licorice dominate this wine and integrate beautifully with the aromas on the nose. The texture is well balanced with soft tannins and developed structure. Serve this wine around 58 degrees F.
