Aromas of red plum, wild mountain sage, roasted beets, and spiced cherries are followed by flavors of raspberry pie, Cocoa powder, forest floor and red cherry. On the palate there are layered tannins and a vibrant acidity.
Enjoy this alongside arugula salad with dried figs and prosciutto, curried mussels, coconut shrimp or pizza with herb-marinated feta. Lighter foods with a touch of the exotic, or a little earthiness would do well with this wine.
