Medium and concentrated aromatics with black cherry, blackberry, raspberry and an herbaceous quality. Both red and black cherry greet you on the palate with some worn leather, black pepper, and spice. The fruit is present and balanced with a light amount of savory bark that leaves a rustic tannin like finish. Medium-bodied with medium-plus acid, excellent with food.

Pasta with red sauce, sausage, pizza, beef Bolognese, aged aromatic cheeses, roasted root vegetables with fresh herbs, and roast duck all pair well.
