Intense deep fruity with raspberry, cherry and blackcurrant, set upon a lovely honey sweet backbone, the cherry giving a light tartness to balance, lovely mouthfeel and body, cherry infused lingering sweet finish. Lovely balance, exquisite.

375 ml bottle. Pours a deep dark purple color with no head (none expected). The aroma is medium in strength with black currants and some tart cherries. The taste is intense with ripe currants and tart cherries. The palate full and rich. Finishes long and sweet with lingering cherries. Overall: Decent--This is some fantastic stuff. Pairs well with some fontina cheese.

Аромат на обсолютной высоте. Немного терпкий и танниный, есть черешня и совсем грам косточки от нее, затем как будто яжевика, хотя она не указана в составе, намеки на малину, черная смородина все приукрашивает. Меда очень мало. Очень насыщенно и ярко, как будто выжимка ягодная, совсем немного кислинка как будто присутствует. Цвет красный, но на просвет аж фиолетовые нотки. Вкус как будто дотрагиваешься до облаков рая. Просто блаженная смесь из разнообразных ноток ягод. Прежде всего радует что ощущается черная смородина, она как бы обвалакивает все остальное. Снова черешня, но меньше, а вот малины и яжевики больше, как будто пьешь ягодный сок, если это приминимо. При глотке появляется сладость, весьма большая, скорее всего это мед так дает о себе знать. Все очень нежно и без яркого и приторного момента. Одно из высших достояний нашего вида на планете земля.

Real dark reddish purple, nicely viscous. Bright jammy berry smell, currants, cherries, bit of alcohol. Body ain't thick, but smoooth. Taste is rich, decadent, intense fruityness. Sweet, with a subtle tartness. Lotsa cherry, raspberry, soft honey. Awesome
