Wine Description:
This wine has a dark rich garnet color and aromas of Bing cherries and lilacs.
Fruit flavors of concentrated red currants and simpler fresh plums are well
integrated due to the secure background of subtle new oak and minerals.
Food Recommendations:
Stone hearth rotisserie Cornish game hen accompanied by tomato basil risotto with roasted red bell peppers and a dessert of Terra Missou.
