TASTING NOTE
Hanik 2018
red wine
The wine offers a surprising smell, quite pronounced and diverse. We smell a lot, and a lot of different things: dried fruits, vanilla (the smell of Italian panettone), roses, and scents of malolactic fermentation. The smell isn’t stable but continuously provides different scents, and for that reason it is quite interesting. We taste flavors of red currants, raisins, rose petal, vanilla, and almonds. The wine reminds us of red Muscat dessert wine, except without the sweetness. A very good price/quality ratio!
