Cherry cola meets forest floor in this compelling Russian River expression.

Cherry cola jumps from glass. Rose petals, pine needles follow. Tamarind tartness cuts through fruit sweetness. Fennel adds herbal complexity. Medium body carries flavors cleanly. Bright acidity keeps everything lifted. Earthy finish lingers with cola spice. Drink now through 2025.
