Slightly off dry and spicy, like fresh strawberries with black pepper. In love.

The off-dryness lends itself to food necessity. I wouldn't kick-back and drink.

A lot of points for unique character here.
A brilliant deep orange color.
The aroma is a mix of cracked black peppercorns, vegetal stemmy notes, and blood oranges.
The palate is a shock of initial sweetness that finishes completely dry, but this is a demi-sec so should not be too shocking. If a Mosel Riesling and a Loire Pinot Noir rose had a stem inclusion baby this would be it. The palate adds more of a ruby grapefruit citrus dusted with fresh cracked pepper.

Strawberries, apple cider and fall spices. A perfect touch of sugar.

Slightly off-dry. Fresh strawberries, black pepper and a gorgeous core of minerality.
