This
estate wine will surprise you in many ways. At just 11.78% alcohol, you might
get trapped into “pre-thinking” what characteristics this wine might have, but
it is packed with some rich flavors and has aged quite nicely over the last six
years. The light ruby red color and fruit forward sensation of this New York
International Wine Competition gold winner is quite lovely. With medium acids
and moderate tannins, this should pair well with a wide variety of your
favorite Mediterranean dishes. Raspberry
flavors seem to dominate with a medium finish and a slight smoky finish that
lingers to let you know that a repeat is necessary. Sip and repeat are highly
recommended. Cin Cin!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
