Top Notes For

The most hyper-masculine wine I’ve had in a while, this is deep, dark, roasted fruit, strong coffee, cigar, roasted meat, and smoke on the nose and it doubles down in the mouth with structure you don’t expect for under $30. Not an everyday style, but interesting tonight.

Robust Rhone-style blend. Pairs very well with smoked meats and stands up on its own. A personal favorite.

Really pleasant with a slightly fruity smell. Balanced and good for a variety of foods. Will get again.
