Medium+ ruby to garnet in colour with a medium to medium+ intense nose.
In comparing this to their reserve Foch, this one is lighter in taste but higher in alcohol. If you had to choose, I would go with the reserve for the extra money.
Positive Notes: A flavorful wine featuring prunes, brambleberry fruit, figs and pastrami. Medium+ body with medium to Medium+ tannins, good acidity & a long length.
Negatives: A touch hot on the taste
Drink now on its own or over the next 3 years and pair it with venison.
