On the nose, a captivating bouquet of wild red berries, rosehips, forest floor, sandalwood, and delicate spices enchants the senses. The palate reveals a vibrant medley of cranberry, pomegranate, and red cherry, underpinned by fresh acidity and a silky texture. Layers of complexity unfold with hints of black tea and a whisper of earthiness, culminating in a lifted, persistent finish.
