MORE INFORMATION:
Intense black cherry colour, youthful ruby red on edge. This wine is “love at first sight and smell” Intense and complex aroma of ripe dark fruit, hints of violets, peppery layer, hints of cigar box and vanilla. Full bodied, powerful wine, yet has well integrated velvety tannins, long lingering fruit on the palate with a rich black fruit finish. Will age for at least 10 years.
Enjoy with game meat, steak or even a mushroom risotto with truffles.
