Scarlett Dark is a full-bodied, lush red wine made for sharing in good company. Crafted from carefully selected, aromatic grapes, the wine has bold and fruity notes that captivate passionate wine lovers and first-time tasters alike. Its iconic rose motif embodies passion and joy.
Scarlett Dark is a blend of three grape varieties, Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, chosen for their intensity and perfect compatibility. Shiraz brings spiciness and depth, Merlot abundant fruitiness, and Cabernet structure along with bold tannins. The result is a full-bodied, velvety and multi-dimensional wine.
