Taste : On the nose, enveloping notes of red and black berry fruit fuse with the spicy sensations of vanilla and the characteristic scents of black pepper. The palate is sweet and pleasurable; its attractive persistence fully expresses an aftertaste characterized by the aromas of such dark fruit as black currants and blackberry jam together with light hints of vanilla.

Pairings : Barbeque, smoked ribs, porkchops.
