Dark black ruby in the glass showing a nose of coffee, black cherry, black olive and cocoa. Ripe and soft showing flavors of black cherry, blackberry, cassis, cocoa and hints of vanilla. Has a dusty character and the tannins are soft and sweet on the long finish. Nice wine. 14.5% Alc/vol. $27
Paired with leftover Heartland flank steak, roasted potatoe wedges and a wonderful salad.
