"Vivid ruby. Fresh raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by spices and flowers, picking up a peppery quality with air. Nervy, focused and spicy, offering bright red berry and cherry skin flavors and a touch of candied rose. The finish is nicely brisk and focused, with a peppery note adding cut to the sweet red fruit. I'd serve this at the end of a meal, with cheeses."

"Full ruby. Dark berries, cherry pit, cola and spicecake on the pungent nose. Sappy, penetrating and broad, offering boysenberry and cherry compote flavors and a touch of allspice. Closes on a spicy note, with lingering dark fruit qualities and a touch of lavender. Exotic and singular wine that would work well with strongly seasoned red meats or funky cheeses."
