Canadian White

Hermit Wine 2017 RMX
Canadian Red
Black plum, blackberry and violet open with cracked pepper and savoury spice.

Spanish Red
Fresh and lightly earthy, with plum and wild raspberry at the centre of a vivid red-fruited profile. A gentle natural spritz brings lift to the palate, while the texture remains easy and unforced.
