Aromas of dried cherries and cinnamon with hints of sweet violets. There is a touch of yellow stone fruit at the core, but it's very classic for contemporary Bussia. Austere palate with a full body, brilliant integrated acidity and stern yet ripe tannins.

Wild cherries, mint, bay leaf, and the distinctive earthiness of steeped tea leaves combine with savory spices and dried flower petals in the aroma. The palate offers dried cherries rehydrated in spiced liquor, accompanied by roasted herbs, pepper, and a cedar hint. Firm tannins provide structure, suggesting that further aging will enhance the wine's integration and smoothness.

This is round and fleshy, offering cherry, plum, earth, iron and tobacco flavors. Firmly built, this is balanced, with a lingering finish and solid grip. The lasting impression is ripe fruit.
