Tasting Profile
Look: | Bright ruby red, with glints of a darker purple heart. |
---|---|
Smell: | An elegant, fruit driven nose, highlighted by clear aromas of black raspberry, blackberry, and mulberry. These are joined by hints of tobacco leaf, black peppercorn, violet, and herbal black tea. |
Taste: | Delicious, with flavors reminiscent of what you experience on the nose. Elegantly fruit forward dark berries are paired with subtle hints of soft summer earth and spice. The fruit flavors are concentrated but not overpowering, with the notes of earth and spice providing a subtle counterbalance to the sweet fruit. |
Finish: | A scrumptious wine that finds a nice balance between sweet, perfectly ripened fruit and soft, subtle structure. |
Pairing: | A perfect wine to pair with a meal prepared on the grill. We suggest grilled pork tenderloin, finished with a tangy homemade sauce. |
