Light salmon orange color. Aromas and flavors of tart red cherry, raspberry pomegranate, orange zest and cinnamon, and field of flowers with a satiny, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a tingling, long finish imparting shades of tart red cherry, cherry blossom, and cherry pie ala mode with vanilla ice cream. Exactly what you expect of a cherry honey wine; juicy from start to finish.
