Brilliant purple, with garnet notes. Red currant, licorice, bay leaf and floral notes on the nose. The palate is rich and textured. This is a larger expression of the grape than most, but the zippy acidity keeps it balanced. Tannings are minimal. Red currant, strawberry and blackberry on the palate, along with crunchy minerality. The finish is long and complex, with the floral elements reappearing. Chill to cellar temperature and serve with venison chops, roast pork or grilled calamari.
