Critical Acclaim | |||
"A pleasant CC with fresh berries, citrus peel and a hint of walnut. Medium-bodied with a fresh, racy feel and light tannins. Drink now." —James Suckling "A combination of vanilla, tar and rose petals on the nose meets with wild herbs and fresh red fruit. Cranberries, strawberries and cherries on the palate stay in balance with more savory notes of tar and rock, pressing up against firm tannins." —Wine Enthusiast |
