This wine is deep ruby with intensely concentrated black fruit (blackberry, plum, cassis) aromas and flavors, along with black pepper, licorice, nutmeg, cedar, clove, wet earth, mushroom, and leather notes. Lovely complement to the Boeuf Bourguignon with strong acidity and tannins, high alcohol, and full body.
