Wine starts light and lifted full of bright fruits. Very light body and color, strawberries and raspberry with herbs and a trace of cedar.

A little too fruity at the outset, but nice after it was open for awhile.

Lovely, taut and wiry. Clean red berry fruit. Hints of complexity but only has mid palate presence because I'm drinking it cold. Enjoyable.
