Description
Deep ruby red and soft velvet colors are paired with aromas of pomegranate, black cherry, and plum with hints of black pepper and blackberry. This is a rich, vibrant and supple wine with flavors of black cherry, chocolate and cocoa powder. Blackberry and plum flavors linger and engulf the mid-palate. Soft, silky tannins grip and then release gracefully on the finish. Pair with red meats or enjoy with light cheese to really savor the flavors of the wine.
