Aromas of blackberries, plums, rhubarb, sage, and pepperwood. Dark fruits, dried herbs, peppercorn, and smoked meat are expressed on the palate, and are accompanied by fine tannins and bright acidity. This full-bodied, strongly flavored and firmly structured wine can tackle the juiciest cuts of meat. It smells like blackberries, black pepper and a little wood smoke, rich.
