Not a usual choice for us at dinner but this was a chef selection and went EXCELLENT with dinner. Lots of vegetables notes, light, earthy and medium tannins.

Cherry with some cedar and lavender. Requires some aeration then opens up nicely.

Medium dark purple ruby. Cranberry, ligonberry, red cherry and blackberry on the nose with some bell pepper, smoke and tobacco. Medium body, acidity and tannins with chalky minerality and delicate notes of cherry, cranberry with pepper, smoke and discrete oak. Black licorice on the medium long finish. The nose is more intense than the palate which leads to a smooth, easy drinking wine. Coravined.

Smoke and white pepper on the nose. Rich juicy cherry notes, nice acid. Fairly lean structure with some lingering pepper on the finish. Elegant wine. 13%
