The wine is rich and carries the depth of this remarkable grape. We suggest pairing this wine with beef, pork, or wild game dishes.  It will benefit from 20 minutes of decanting before service. This is a drink now wine, but will continue to drink well through 2025 with proper cellaring. We got aromas and tasting notes of raspberry, strawberry, cherry, vanilla, coconut, sweet tobacco, nutmeg, and liquorice.
