This deep, ruby red wine has enough black pepper on the nose to prompt a sneeze. There’s a ton of black fruit as well, along with licorice, tobacco and some rustic oak. The palate shows off it’s country side, too, with black and blue berries and an oak treatment that does not go overboard. Tannins are not extremely forceful, but there’s enough structure to make it worth your while to pair it with lean meat dishes or pasta.
