Description: A semi-sweet red wine made with the Isabella grape, grown in Taraclia, Moldova. Nose of cherry jam, blackberry, leather, cigar box and vanilla. Medium brick color with orange rim and light, delicate taste of strawberries. Isabella is an intriguing American hybrid grape, thought to be a crossing of unknown Vitis labrusca and vinifera species. Moldova is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe that lies just north of Romania and Bulgaria. Moldova wines are gaining popularity in recent years because of its superb price/quality ratio.
