Some of these vines are over a hundred years old. They grow as small bushes in terraces of black lava, and the volcano still drops ash on them every few years. The wine is pale, for a red, and tastes of smoke and wild fruit.
How it tastes
Wild strawberry, smoke and crushed rock. Pale and light on its feet.
