Kpo says: So pleasant and easy drinking fruity red wine! Slightly sweet.

The wine is created from one of the most famous Central European grape variety- Blaufrankisch, grown in in Transcarpathia. It is a bright ruby wine with a pronounced fruity character. The aroma is complex, with tones of violet, black currant, cherry, blackberry and light shades of spices. The taste of the wine is mild, with delicate tannins, notes of red fruit, dark berries and ripe plums, which ends with a long juicy aftertaste.
