Seductive aromatic layers of intense dark fruit are laced with cigar
box and brown spices. The velvety entry reveals rich blackberry and plum with
traces of espresso and black pepper. A welcome spiciness appears mid-palate,
first at the edges and then envelopes the flavors in the long finish. The
structure of oak and tannins perfectly folds into the background, contributing
to the depth and character, while allowing the delicious flavors to retain
their focus.
Enjoy pairing this beautiful wine with duck breast drizzled with a
balsamic reduction, or pork medallions with a plum and wine reduction.
