Yes, you are correct, as I tried to say in my post. That was unavailable. Of course, yours is better.

Move to the desert!

I can get it the Full Proof right now at two places within about 10 miles of me. TotalWine carries it but sold out for months now.

Framboise 2024

Appearance - clear deep red rose

Smell - really good raspberry nose from raspberries plus Chambord liqueur

Tannin - good

Acid - good

Flavour -this was fermented with 71B yeast to drop malic acid to reduce the need for back sweetening. I use corn sugar (dextrose) for back sweetening because it gives me an aftertaste that I like. This is SG 1.009, the lowest I've ever had on raspberry wine. This wine is slightly tangy with a really good nose and a really lingering finish. I can taste it in my mouth after 5 minutes.

retaste:

Appearance - clear deep rd purple

Smell - really good raspberry nose from raspberries plus Chambord liqueur actually hard to describe

Tannin - good

Acid - good

Flavour - this is good-very good
