TASTING NOTE: Deeply intense, with opulent notes of chocolate sauce, blackberry jelly, dark cherry and peppercorn, this wine is velvety and mouthfilling on the palate. There's a hint of youthful tannin on the close. Another great showing from a Vintages customer fave. Pour with peppercorn-crusted burgers topped with bacon and sautéed mushrooms.
