Tasting Notes: This complex cuvée of Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Petite Sirah is delightful from first smell to last sip. Rich cranberry, dried plum, and elegant spice create a beautiful potpourri on the nose. Bursts of soft baking spice give way to notes of blueberry jam and sweet vanilla that transcend to a long, juicy finish. A perfect glass on its own, this wine also pairs beautifully with warm, comforting cuisine.
Food Pairing Suggestions: This complex cuvée pairs well with smoked turkey, duck, grilled meats and vegetables, barbecue, spareribs, braised beef, roast leg of lamb, veal, charcuterie, or dark chocolate.
