WineDiva's Review

Chocolaty, fleshy, plush.
This "devil" is a blast of kirsch, plum jam and chocolate alongside Turkish coffee and licorice. It is very plump and plush with jammy fruits, baking spices, mocha and licorice flavours.
Certainly supple and fleshy with full-on fruit. I suggest pairing it with chili, burgers, pizza and anything with sweet and spicy barbecue sauce.
