Glossy ruby to garnet red color. Ripe red fruit drifts out of the glass. Strawberries, cherries, raspberries and blackberries accompanied by a southern spiciness and a hint of pepper. A typical bitterness gives the wine extra structure and character. For lovers of pleasantly fruity wines that sit nicely in the mouth.
Southern meat preparations, grilled sirloin steak, veal, southern vegetable pots and soft to medium matured cheeses.
