Smelling of summer cherries drizzled with balsamic and ringed by cinnamon-dusted pastry crust, this youthful wine is immediately likeable. Scrumptious baked cherries, pomegranate tang and a hint of maple syrup give this a fascinating flavor profile. The palate is easygoing, with pleasantly round tannins, a vaguely glossy midpalate texture and a neatly dry sensation on the moderate finish. Juicy, forward and fun, the medium alcohol, light tannins and early-drinking profile make this a good candidate for chilling in the summer. Drink now–2024.
