Top Notes For
Randy Fuller

This wine is a dark purple in the glass. Its nose is amazing and complex. Blackberry and blueberry aromas meet with anise, tar, tobacco, earth and vanilla. The palate is deep with dark fruit and oak spice, while the tannic structure is firm. I made a killer tomato sauce with this wine. It goes to show that you should use the best available wine for cooking.
