Wine Profile
"A light color in the glass, this bottling offers mulberry jam and spiced cookie aromas served atop a warm sandalwood platter on the nose. Toasted sage, thyme and bay leaf flavors enliven the brisk cran-raspberry core of the palate, which stays energized through the finish." Matt Kettmann
