AURORE Rara Neagră 2020

“A delicious and heart-warming table wine made using the Moldavian and Romanian Rară Neagră grape variety. Dried cranberry, ripe dark cherry, tobacco leaf and a touch of smoke on the nose. Tasty and rounded, with plenty of juicy plums and black cherries to fill the peppery palate. Mouth-watering varietal acidity. Tannins are fine-grained but firm.” Sylvia Wu, Editor, DecanterChina.com and Regional Editor – Asia and Northern and Eastern Europe
