TASTING NOTES
This garnet colored wine offers aromas of dark fruits, violets, dried thyme and bay leaf, and a hint of smoke. It is rich and bright with cherry flavors on the palate, and a smooth finish. Drink now and over the next 5 years.
WINEMAKING NOTES
Harvested early in the morning, sorted and destemmed upon reaching the winery, followed by a 10-day fermentation in tank, then pressed to barrel. Aged in one 2nd use American Oak barrel and one 3rd use American Oak Barrel for 20 months.
FOOD PAIRING SUGGESTIONS
Excellent pairing for lamb and various smoked, braised or stewed meats. Duck confit is an especially indulgent and satisfying pairing!
