Description: This wine has a deep and rich aroma of smoky wood, nuts, dried fruit with a touch of pool liner. Flavors of chocolate, coffee, dried fruits & nuts with an earthy undertone give this wine serious depth. As it breathes, notes of cherry and pomegranate appear. A juicy mouth-feel lightens the heavier flavors, giving it great balance. The long finish is bone dry with a slightly woody edge.
Decanting not required although some light airing adds to the complexity.
Food Pairing: moussaka, grilled lamb
