Rating

Ripe and spicy, with a mocha oak overlay that wrapsinvitingly around generous currant and cherry fruit. Drink now through 2011. 3,865 cases made. –HS Wine Spectator 88 points (Oct 15 2008)

Food pairing

Savory full-flavored meats such as roasted lamb, beef short ribs or even spice-rubbed or barbequed chicken. Especially delicious with hard cheeses and dark chocolate! Can be consumed with or without friends. We recommend that when you drink with friends to bring more than one bottle, or you won’t get much for yourself. Enjoy!
