"Fruit-bomb is the right description, but it does have depth in the midst of its bombast."

"Big, juicy, forward style, with layers of plum sauce, blackberry, spicy toast and mocha flavors. For the fruit-bomb loving crowd."

"Tasting Notes/Food Pairing Suggestions
Aromas of bright berry/cherry fruit and electric-purple color. Like swallowing a whole bowl of mixed ripe berries at once. Big body yet very balanced, with luscious layers of raspberry, cherry, and cocoa flavors. Just a hint of baking spice at the end brings it all together. Pairs well with grilled meats such as beef and pork, smoked ham, and even pizza with meat toppings. Incredibly fun to drink!"
