Tasting Notes
Aromas of cherry eau de vie, cassis, dark cocoa, licorice, strawberry pie, and savory herbs abound. The mouth is dense and full bodied, with layers of sappy red fruits tied to a streak of fresh acidity, which defines this very cool site.
Food Pairings
Pork, roast lamb, beef, wild mushroom risotto
