APPEARANCE The color is a deep and opaque purple.
NOSE The wine's nose mirrors the depth of color, with dark-cherry, plum, bitter-chocolate and clove notes.
PALATE The palate is rich and lush, with a myriad of cherry notes ranging from fresh to cooked to candied, balanced by the elegant tannins and lingering finish.
PAIRING Excellent in the company of deer meat and red meat steaks, it is perfect to combine with aged cheeses and dark chocolate.
