Its beautiful intense garnet red color entices the eye, while its warm fruity hints of cherry and plum with light spicy notes on the finish enthrall the palate. The taste is broad and rich with elegant tannins that leave room for a long and harmonious finish. It’s perfect for pairing with dishes made with stewed or grilled red meats, cured meats, game, and medium-aged cheeses.
