Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Seductive plums, blackberries, violets and dried cherry flavors are combined with sultry aromatics in this deeply colored wine with a long finish.
Winemaker Notes
This fruit was purchased for blending purposes but was so good we released it on it’s own. It was fermented in open tops and then aged in 100% French oak for 2 years. Still bright, fruity and tannic all at the same time, we expect it to age quite well even though it drinks nicely right now. It is my favorite.
Food Pairing Notes
Perfect for hearty meals such as Penne Marinara, Venison Stew, Antelope Steak, Pork Roast and Flank Steak with a mushroom sauce reduction.
