Winemaker's Tasting Notes

Expressive bright fruit dominates the nose with hints of spice in the background. With aeration the red to black fruit morphs into a floral perfume while maintaining its freshness and distinction.The balanced palate delights with fine grained tannins, soft velvety texture and integrated acidity.

Food pairings may include traditional Italian cuisine, or a country style meal of roasted game hen with mushrooms. Drink now or over the next 3 to 5 years
