Nose
Black fruit, blueberry, and cigar box aromas burst from the glass leading to flavors of blueberry pie, vanilla, and allspice.
Palate
A round mouthfeel and approachable tannins with a long finish of baked pear, tropical fruit juice, and just a hint of toasty oak.
Aging
20 months in 30% new FO.
Food Pairing
This wine is dense but very approachable and inviting with its silky tannins and will pair well with lean meats like lamb, vension, elk, and top sirloin steaks.
