Clear, deep ruby colour; ripe aromas of red plum, black fruit and spice; dry, medium-full bodied with flavours of plum, black fruit and spice with soft, supple tannins; medium finish. Full-bodied and firm, the subtle tannins lend itself to pairings like barbecued brisket and thick-cut bacon, but equally as good matched with a full spread of Spanish tapas or stuffed peppers.
