Sister to Alyson not Agnes, Sarah is the perfect combination of sweet and sass – the soft florality of ripe fruit, and the zesty twangs that give raspberries and cranberries their lasting impact – a blend of tart, acidic berries with premium quality honey. She is at once complex yet approachable, multi-faceted and integrated. She can hang out with a good book after dinner on her own, or she plays well with others, including roasted poultry, cheese courses, and spinach salads.

Bottle shared to Random Stranger. Bit hazy deep red. Indeed a ton of cranberries, sweet joney, creamy, raspberries, vanilla, floral, soft alcohol, sour red currants. Solid sweet, light sour. Full bodied. Noice.

Rødbrun farge uten skum. Lukter bringebær, solbær og honning. Meget søt. Smaker bringebær og honning som kommer veldig etter hvert.

cloudy red pink color. Sweet honey. Strawberries, tart good fruit. Rounded. Amazing depth, sweet but dry finish. So rounded and integrated. A work of art

Thanks Gregg for sharing the bottle! Wineglass showing translucent cranberry red.

The nose shows intense notes of ripe juicy cranberry.

The palate is full bodied. Perfectly balanced raspberry with astringent cranberry throughout.

Bottle @ Johnny's Tree House Tasting. Reddish dark red color, no head. Smell and taste to me are a mix between two kinds of red fruits / red berries mixed with honey. Quite nice.

Nice dark red, lightly viscous looking. Smell is sweet, rich, lovely jammy; typical Schramms. Body feels fairly light, but there's some light alcohol noticable. Could be stickier. Taste is on point, good mix of both fruits, light tartness, balanced.
