Mood: Flagship, Polished, Reliable
Tasting notes
Ripe plum, black cherry, sweet vanilla, and a hint of cocoa. Medium-to-full with silky tannin, dark fruit, and oak-led spice. Long and smooth, with plum and vanilla lingering.
Food pairing
Roast chicken, mushroom risotto, Shabbos brisket, and any Yom Tov table that wants a polished red.
