Tasting Notes
The 2022 vintage has concentrated aromas of blackberry, mulberry, and cherry that lead into flavors of dark chocolate, graham cracker, and cedar. The wine is lush, rich, and velvety. Enjoy now, or for many years to come as it will age gracefully.
Food Pairings
Dry rubbed boneless pork ribs, prime rib with shiitake mushroom risotto, and herb roasted chicken.
