With complex character and versatility, this limited offering gets along well with a wide range of palates and food pairings, including a hearty dinner of flavorful meat dishes and rich starches.
Tasting Notes
Body
Appearance
Deep purple-ruby at the core, fading to a lighter ruby hue toward the rim with moderate tearing in the glass.
Aroma
Inviting warm spice notes lead, followed by juicy blackberry, dried floral notes, hints of cigar box and cracked black pepper aromas add to the complexity of the nose.
Palate
Dry and full-bodied supported by polished, integrated tannins, the palate shows flavors of blueberry compote and ripe black cherry accompanied by notes of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. The finish is smooth and layered with savory touches of bacon drippings, peppercorn, and dried herbs.
