TEMPRANILLO SHIRAZ – WITH GRAPE SKINS

Aromas of red berry, chocolate, and peppery spice set the tone for a palate packed with flavors of black cherry, raspberry, blueberry, and plum. Ripe tannin and rich spice lend to the lush mouthfeel, while layered notes of milk chocolate play off savory elements of tobacco and licorice. A blockbuster example of how these two flavorful grapes amplify each other.
