Dark red in color, on the nose the wine smells of blackberry, black cherry, and clove, with background notes of coffee and vanilla. On the palate, the wine bursts with fresh fruit, cherries, and blackberries. A seamless arc of flavor flows into a slightly smoky finish. Food Pairing: Versatile with food, this wine pairs well with grilled red meats and vegetables, pork tenderloin and heavy cheeses.
