Winery Review: Beautiful ruby appearance, with blackberry and pepper notes. Tannins and fruit marry well for a soft finish. This wine pairs well with sharp cheddar cheese and hazelnuts. Also try it along with roast lamb at Easter time, veal marsala, or frilled salmon.
My Review: This red was very green peppery with a hint of berries on the nose. It was very tannic on the palate, yet it gave it a smooth finish. Compared to other red wines I have had, this was a 'not so bad' red! I would give this wine an 85. I tasted this on its own with no food.
