This wine shows us that terroir-hunting pays off – the density, intense body, and structure of this wine are stunning.
Nose: The nose mixes pomegranate, black cherry, candy cane beetroot, earth, and cola in equal measure, with vanilla and baking spices layered over a background of fallen leaves and smoked meat.
Palate: On the palate, the wine unfolds even more showing intense black cherry, leather saddle, beetroot, and roast drippings backed by tobacco, basil, and underbrush.
Finish: Leaning towards full-bodied with loads of core structure & tannin, it is full and vibrant with excellent acidity and tannin.
Pairing: Pair with a beet salad and goat cheese salad, anything with mushrooms or salmon or barbeque pork ribs.
