Staff Pick Notes

Such a delicious, everyday wine! It has a lot of aroma and flavor components and at the same time it's smooth and easy to drink. On the nose, you can notice ripe red fruit. On the palate, the Malbec grape gives rich, fruity notes. The Petit Verdot grape adds smoothness and a bit of earthy notes. Tannins and acidity are well balanced together. For its smooth structure it's a good food partner; you can pair it with red meat, burgers or simply with pasta. We always talk of comfort food. Experiencing this wine, we can definitely talk of comfort wine at a very reasonable price!
