A deep dark garnet wine with crystalline clarity. The nose of chocolate and blackberry jam ascends into a fresh red fruit palate highlighted by cherries. Pomegranate and cranberry provide an elegant finish to the structured acidity of ripe fruit. A great camaraderie is bridged between this Sweet Mengsel and it's sister the Mengsel. Both are truly balanced bold wines with ideal acidity, yet this sweet sibling is more tannic.
