YOU SAMPLED a Medium red from Jaspi NegreRipe red and black fruits, herbaceous notes and spice and soft velvety tannins for structure. The fruit flavors in this wine are deep in color but still tart, sort of like how a nice pour over coffee can be both tart and robust. Cherries, raspberries, pinch of balsamic and a little white pepper.
