Review and Tasting

Sampled on 14/10/2014

Appearance:

Clear, pale salmon pink with coppery tones. (Beware the non-standard neck which makes it unlikely that your champagne stoppers will fit.)

Aroma:

Cherry and raspberry with rose petal, red grapes and copper bar counter.

Taste:

Ripe berry fruit, cherry and not quite ripe apple with dry biscuity notes and cleansing acidity. Very fruity but balanced – not sweet.

Aftertaste:

Long red berry fruit and coxes apple.
