Welcome back from angullia - the land of beautiful beaches and mediocre wine

Light and chillable, slightly more complex than expected but not overly. Blue fruit, wild strawberries, slight surprising tannins and high acid give it a more solid finish

Looks like a rosé but has a low bouquet, maybe like a weak champagne (?). On the sweet side but a hint of dryness. Light red fruits like strawberry and maybe raspberry. Mild acidity in the mouth and down the throat. OK but not great.
