Vividly bright onion coloured wine with beautiful fruity aromas. Cherry, rose and wild strawberries have hints of grapefruit and ripe melon. We can also trace white flowers aroma along with cherry blossom and acacia. The wine leaves a warm taste with a round crispness. Residue sugar is noticeable. Harmonious and balanced wine.
