 Wine Characteristics Cloves and leather dominate the nose at first. After some aeration, notes of cherry and black currant join in with hints of cracked white pepper. In the palate, the wine has a generous body complemented by notes of toasted oak and tobacco. Supple tannins enhance a smooth and long finish.
Food Pairings This wine can be enjoyed now with any grilled meat, pasta dish and soft cheeses. Once cellared for a few years, it will pair well with beef stew and chocolate desserts. |
