On the nose, this wine is bursting with dark fruits and roasted nuts, with
hints of fresh black cherries, blackcurrant, rose petal, and roasted walnuts.
The palate shows rich flavors of black cherries, toasted hazelnuts, fresh sage,
mocha, and subtle vanilla and oak flavors. Tannins are firm in their youth
but will be soft­en with age.
 
Food Pairing
Pair this full-bodied wine with full-bodied dishes, use the lush tannins
to help cut through richer dishes, or enjoy with braised short ribs or
well-seasoned steak.
