Areni Noir 'Karasi', Zorah 2017

Light, briljant purple in the glass, this wine smells of smoky mulberry and cassis. In the mouth, the wine has a wonderfully bright cassis and Beaujolais-like grapey quality backed by a fantastic wet campfire-woodsmoke flavor that is quite arresting.

Excellent acidity makes the wine juicy and quite easy to drink and powerdery tannins lend substance to the bright fruit.
