In the glass the wine is a deep purple with bluish highlights moving to a narrow dark pink rim. On the nose there is a medium intensity of semi-sweet dark chocolate with hints of red cherry and cedar. On the palate the wine is dry, medium to full-bodied, medium fine grained tannins and mouth-watering acidity. The flavors on the palate initially might be described a "dusty" (chalky) sensation followed by semi-ripe black cherry with hints of dark semi-sweet chocolate. The finish is clean with a short length of lingering hints of the dark semi-sweet chocolate and the refreshing acidity. Serve between 55F and 60F. Due to its informal style you might even chill to 50F for quaffing)
Wine & Food: Pizza, pasta, Italian hard cheeses. Simple and informal Italian cuisine or Barbecue.
