Superman's Pal strikes again, with a delicious food-friendly blend. This wine is fruit forward and verges on full bodied structure, but no so much as to obscure the dark cherry and cassis fruits. The finish is dense and complex. It went perfectly with ground beef zucchini noodle lasagna (zucchini strips in place of pasta). Use in any pairing that a SuperTuscan would be appropriate to drink 🍷

Kind of made up for itself after the second day, but cooking wine on the first day. Extremely unbalanced.
