In the glass, a quick swirl unlocks aromas of red berries and cherry along with hints of leather and balsamic. The palate features ripe, dusty, Bordeaux-like tannins that beautifully compliment the nicely extracted fruit. As more air gets to your glass, it offers even more complexity — smoky cherry and raspberry with cocoa spice. Pair this with lamb, beef, and all your favorite hearty soups and stews of winter.
This wine is always well rated, and I this review from the Spectator hits it spot on:
