Cherry cola meets forest floor in this sophisticated Russian River expression.
Cherry cola sweetness opens into wild rose petals and resinous pine. Tamarind tartness cuts through mid-palate richness. Fennel seed spice adds intrigue. Forest floor undertones speak to terroir. Silky tannins frame bright acidity. Drink now through 2025 for optimal fruit-earth balance.
