Angry violet! Dark, intense color with purple hues. Wild nose of blackberries, plums and a hint of elderberry. Impressions of sage, lavender and vanilla. Tasty fresh and lush fruit fills the mouth supported by a lively acidity and results in a beautifully finished and long final.
Grilled ribs, roasted steak, lamb and pork shoulder. The better barbecue wine!
