Notes of black tar, violet & rose petal across the nose. Don't let this pretty soft see through color foul ya, cuz the mouthfeel is all dried cranberry, bright violet, tomato skin & perfectly sliced beef carpaccio. Yum! A #perfectpairing to the Tomato Braised Duroc Pork Shoulder I enjoyed it with tonite.
