Fruit Wine
Elderberry
This full bodied sweet wine offers a rich berry flavor with a tart finish. Rich and deep in color, hearty in flavor with bright acidity and rich elderberry notes are balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Best consumed as a dessert or mixed with some club soda (or ginger ale if you’re feeling adventurous) for a delicious cocktail.
