Wine Review: This ruby colored red blend from Theopolis opens with a blueberry and cinnamon stick bouquet with hints of cedar and red licorice. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round and zesty. The flavor profile is an extracted blackberry and black licorice blend with notes of Oreo cookie and black pepper. I also detected hints of black cherry, cola, and cinnamon. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and well-managed moderate tannins drift away nicely. I would pair this red blend with Tuscan wild boar ragu with pappardelle pasta. Enjoy - Ken
Winemaker Notes: Purple garnet. This wine pairs with a wide variety of cuisine. From roasted turkey, grilled vegetables and meats, and a wide variety of comforting braises, stews, and pasta dishes. An enjoyable glass on its own.
