Presenting a ruby red color, this wine has a wide range of aroma of ripe fruit compote, toast, and leather. Fine, complex, and attractive with a great balance. Silky and pleasant in the mouth with a bit of spice detected in the finish.
Serve with red meats, roasts, or game dishes. Its flavor is enhanced with cured or fatty cheeses.
"Deep-garnet to the eye, this wine has aromas of blackberry pie, toffee and fennel bulb. Lusty tannins coat the mouth, bearing flavors of raspberry, dark chocolate, aniseed and orange zest that coalesce in a surprisingly bright finish. - Mike DESIMONE"
