Medium ruby color leads you to pronounced aromas of blackberry compote and black cap raspberries with underlaying notes of new leather, 60% dark chocolate and earth kissed by the morning dew. A lush but firm mouthfeel with bright acidity, followed by flavors of marionberries and raspberries with hints of cocoa dust, black pepper and leather that continue to linger on the tongue.
This wine pairs will with many foods due to medium body and balanced acidity. Try it will beef bourguignon or New York strip steak. For a non-meat dish try roast acorn squash filled with wild rice. Or try it with 60% dark chocolate for dessert.
