Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Beautiful and bright! Aromas of cherry and raspberry, along with notes of dried herbs and a hint of campfire smoke. Smooth on the palate with soft tannins, and bright acidity. Enjoy with any grilled chicken or pork.
