Ripe berries and strawberry preserves abound in this effusively fruited and immensely likeable Rhônish style blend. Bright fruit slowly gives way to deeper hints of spice and leather as the wine opens and evolves in the glass. Supple in feel with a touch of mid-palate plumpness, the wine's persistent fruit is steadily framed by engaging notes of sweet oak and a hint of caramel. Serenity is a delight to drink now, and should be enjoyed for several years to come.
