Occasional Wine Note: We really enjoy this wine. At first sip it will feel like an easy drinking cherry bomb of a wine, but as the wine journeys across your palate, the savory notes start to take over all the way to a beautiful peppery finish. Wonderful!

Inky garnet in the glass, this wine offers a heady bouquet of blackberry, cassis, bramble and roasted fennel bulb. It is delightful on the palate, with a web of opulent tannins supporting flavors of black cherry, Luxardo cherry, crème caramel, star anise and black pepper. The remarkably bright finish features flavors of pomegranate and orange zest. Editor's Choice

This generous red shows density and heft that are kept balanced by lively acidity. Flavors of plum, espresso, olive and dried flowers are well-layered with loamy earth, wild herb and spice accents carrying along the finish. Garnatxa, Carinyena and Syrah. Drink now through 2031. 375 cases made, 200 cases imported.
