Wild red berries and smoke, earthy - florest floor/woodsy notes - light spice, tobacco and leather. The palate is off-dry, kind of spicy-sweet, with tart red fruit, citrus zest and spiced tobacco lingering on the finish. Pair with salmon or wild mushrooms in cream sauce.
Look for this hard-to-find wine in select private wine stores or, I heard you may be able to taste some at the newly opened Shangri-La Hotel in Vancouver...
