Quilceda Creek, Palengat Red Wine other_regions_italy dry and balanced finale whereBright red ruby; not hugely saturated. Alluring, high toned aromas of cassis, boysenberry and gingerbread spices. Suave and fine grained, offering a lovely balance of sweetness of berry fruit and harmonious acidity; uncommonly complex, as the ripeness ranges from lightly herbal to nearly overripe without crossing either line. This plush, broad wine really vibrates on the long, subtle, slowly building finish, which features fine grained tannins.
