This deep-red colored wine has a rambunctious nose. It’s a cacophony of red currant, lingonberry, strawberry, pomegranate and anise. The flavors are pure and direct. Juicy on the midpalate, the wine is medium in weight and moderate in alcohol. Tangy acidity meshes well with lightly drying and sandy tannins. The finish isn’t shy in showing off the wine’s fresh fruit exuberance. Drink now–2018.
