Our Take: A bright, smooth, and playful red from Macedonia, with vibrant aromas of wild strawberry, red currant, and fresh herbs. The palate is light and juicy, with crunchy red fruit and a subtle earthy character, while chalky tannins add just enough structure and grip. Fresh acidity keeps everything lively, leading to a clean, refreshing finish.
