Description
On the nose you will find that plum, dark chocolate, allspice, and blackberry liqueur mingle well with dried herbs de province, candied cherry and vanilla. Flavors of plum, blackberry, vanilla and a soft pleasant oak are accented by dark chocolate and kirsch liqueur. This wine strikes a nice balance between sweetness and alcohol and has a very rich long finish.
Pairs best with 60% dark chocolate!
Bright tangy flavors of cranberry, raspberry, grapefruit are mellowed by a touch of vanilla and clean, quenching acidity
