| 75 | | | 87 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Full-bodied moderately sweet red wine; medium-deep dark cherry red. Very shy aromas, somewhat slow to open, but what’s there speaks of blackberry fruit. Good plum and well-focused dark fruit flavors. Not the intense, bold sort of Banyuls; lighter and not as sweet as some, so may appeal especially to anyone who doesn’t care for really sweet dessert wines. Alc. 16%. Grape: Grenache. Serve moderately cool, about 65 degrees, in small tulip-shaped glasses.
Suggested Food Pairings:
Turtle cake; pan amb chocolat (grilled thinly sliced buttered crusty bread with dabs of melted dark chocolate and a few large grains of gray or other sea salt on top of the chocolate); chocolate truffles; strawberries with basil, turbinado sugar and balsamic vinegar; strawberries or other fruits dipped in chocolate; dark chocolates infused or filled with red fruits; chocolate fondue. Winery also suggests blue cheese; foie gras.
