A wine to sip at the bar with good friends and salacious conversation.

Dark cherries, chocolate and slight anise in the nose and palate. Paired very well with beef cannelloni and bruschetta with Parmesan and olive oil

Full bodied with strong tannins that are well-balanced. Flavors of dark black cherry, chocolate, leather, gravel and a hint of mint.
