This bordeaux is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. It is soft and smooth with red and black fruits, minerals and cedar on the finish. Rich and balanced, this is a great example of classic claret.
From the Wine Maker – “Deep cherry in color, it has an earthy smell. It’s a medium bodied wine with ripe cherry and black tea flavors. There’s also a strong tannic structure that you get full blast if you swish it around a while before swallowing.”
This wine pairs nicely with lamb, cornish hen, duck, turkey, roast sucking-pig, quail, pheasant, venison or meat-based stews. or cheeses like Parmigiano, Romano, Cheddar.
