The winery offers tasting notes that give wild cherry as one of the flavors. That assessment is right on the money. The red fruit - cherry, red currant - is bright and complex, with a dark, earthy edge pushing in from the side. It’s a darkly tinted wine, with a smooth mouthfeel. I paired it with a beef tenderloin for our New Year’s feast, and It was great. I also used it in a wine sauce for the meat, and it was superb.

A little too vegetal for me. The nose is better than the actual taste, with enticing wafts of amarana cherries and underbrush. Sour cherry candy and cocoa powder contribute to a dry, flavorful glass. I do recommend it with some hard cheese like grana padano - it brought out the secondary characteristics of the wine nicely.
