On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and approachable. The flavor profile is a slightly smoky mild tart cherry with hints of plum and a touch of minerality. The finish is dry and it moderate tannins linger slightly. This wine is a Good mushroom burger or marinated steak tip wine. Readers who like South Africa’s smoky style will enjoy this wine.
