Raka Spliced is a charming everyday red blend that showcases a medley of ripe red fruits, including cherries, mulberries, and blackberries. Undertones of prune, earthy notes, and a hint of olives add depth to the nose. The palate is fruit-forward and juicy, with plum flavors taking centre stage, supported by cranberry acidity and subtle smoky oak nuances. This smooth, medium-bodied wine is perfect for casual sipping, with a satisfying finish that leaves you wanting more
