Tasting Notes:
A perfumey essence of ripe delicious
dark fruit woven with traces of vanillin oak and black pepper fills the nose.
The juicy entry and velvety mouthfeel showcase the diverse qualities of bright
acidity caressing dark-toned flavors. Boysenberry, blackberry and plum are
coated with oak-induced spices, while hints of anise and vanilla provide
another layer of interest as they appear near the full finish. This wine
seamlessly combines polish and structure with the seductive, opulent flavors.
Mongolian beef would be a wonderful
complement to this wine, as would wild boar chops with a citrus zest, shallots
and mustard cream sauce.
