Item No. 99161

red wine style:

winemaker's notes:

Dark ruby color, with purple reflections. Intense nose of macerated cherries and licorice. In the mouth the wine is full-bodied with a generous attack, a pleasant freshness and elegant tannins. This well-balanced wine shows a typical expression of southern Rhône wine with thyme and rosemary aftertaste.

Pair with grilled or roasted lamb, beef, grilled rabbit with thyme and rosemary, with garlic mashed potatoes,

alcohol by volume: 13.5%

critical acclaim:

"Very pure, with gorgeous plum and black cherry aromas and flavors laced with enticing spice, graphite and violet notes, followed by a long, silky finish. Delicious. Drink now."

I found this wine to be harsh with an acidic after taste. This wine must be paired with pizza or spaghetti to be more tolerable.

I poured this wine today for myself and my entire harvest crew for lunch. It was well received- a true food wine. Good acid that can hold up well to most foods. Not flawed in any way. Bright cherry notes. Clean. Well-made with good fruit typicity. It is a lighter style, with red fruit and cranberry notes. I would think of this wine as a cheaper substitute for Pinot noir in most pairings.
