Bright aromas of cassis and blackberry fruit are balanced with soft dried herbs and fall spice, and they come together as flavors delivered on firm tannic structure that asks for a long decant or additional bottle aging. It’s worth the wait either way. Pair it with your richest beef or lamb dishes. A Platinum Award winner at the 2016 Monterey International Wine Competition.
