Palate

dark and full-bodied, with ripe notes of black cherry, black raspberry and Santa Rosa plum with hints of black pepper. The wine is almost Cabernet-like in its body and weight, with a yummy, mouth filling quality that begs another sip. It’s an ideal partner for classic Italian dishes such as Pasta Pomodoro, Osso Buco, or polenta topped with sausage, peppers and onion.
