Succulent red fruit, tar, wet leaves, tobacco, tingling minerality, and charcoal finish, delicate tannins. Outstanding value.

Rich taste of dark fruit like cherries in a medium body with soft tannins and a long aftertaste. Served with cabbage, chicken heart, dill and mushroom broth.

Medium ruby with orange hue. Cream, raspberry, charcoal, white pepper, red bell pepper. Medium plus acidity, medium sugar, medium alcohol. Guessed it was a Bordeaux

Earth, dried fruit, and lots of ashy nuances coming from a vineyard on the slopes of Mt. Etna- vines 80+ years old!
