It starts innocently enough—one sip, a teasing flick of juicy cherry and wild raspberry across your tongue. But before you know it, you’re in deep. The acidity hits, bright and exhilarating, sparking movement, mingling, hands and lips everywhere at once. There’s no single direction, no restraint—just bodies of flavour pressing, intertwining, giving in to the inevitable.
Silky tannins slide in, soft but firm, coaxing you into something darker. A rush of earthy spice—clove, cinnamon, something herbal—heightens the sensation, deepens the pleasure. You can’t keep track of it all. A whisper of florals here, a flash of savoury intrigue there, touches appearing and vanishing before you can name them. The pleasure is layered, endless, chaotic in the best way.
And the finish? Long, tangled, impossible to untangle—just the memory of heat, satisfaction, and the undeniable need to do it all over again.
