Shop Review: Bright orange-pink. Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel and honeysuckle, with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pith flavors and a suggestion of rose pastille. The floral element comes back on the finish, which lingers with very good spicy persistence.
My Review: I thought the color on this wine was very interesting - a bright copper color. Strawberries came through right away in the bouquet, followed by some hints of citrus and orange. I thought this wine was very smooth and had notes of honey. I felt the finish was crisp and didn't last long. I did get a feeling of flowers at the end which I really enjoyed! I tasted this without food.
