Top Notes For

9.5

This wine is very dark in the glass. Its nose is fairly complex, with notes of cassis, blackberry, plum, clove, and anise. The palate delivers a rich display of the fruit, plus a savory, earthy aspect. The tannins are fine and there is a fresh acidity. This is a great wine to pair with a steak or pork loin.
