This could be the one with the lot! Beautiful in the bottle, it just gets better and better. A soft but true pink colour with a white mousse foams from the top to glass, gently providing a fine bead that heralds what is to become a fantastic taste experience. The aromas are a true cross of delicate and attractive strawberries with notes of cherries, and some pastry apple pie.
The mouth fill whooshes a big finely balanced length with a soft and slightly sweet finish; the red berry flavours roll into a mouth-filling wave that stay with you for ages and slowly melt away till the next sip.
Stunning, semi-sweet/semi-dry in finish, elegant, sophisticated and an inclusion that should be sitting in your cellar right now. So, do yourself a favour and relax with some of this in the special cupboard and bring it out for real friends only!
