Serene Cellars Too Risqué 2018

$114.75 Reg: $135.00 / 750 ml
As soon as you pour this deep ruby wine into a glass, it teasingly opens and exhibitions its risqué notes. A full nose of dark cherry, with understated floral perfume wafting on the nape of its neck, backs itself into the front of bright cherry. As the experience continues, blackberry, chocolate, and spices dance around the palate, with a soft and round finish that fades away to keep you wanting more.
