Deep garnet with ruby hues

Prominent bright red fruit: pomegranate, Bing cherry, pitaya, raspberries. Notes of Madagascar vanilla bean, cigar box spice and clove. Plum/hoisin notes suggestive of umami. Chai tea and balsamic spice.

Vibrant, bright acidity carries the wine through the back palate and finish. Cuban ropa vieja, cumin and allspice. An evening in Havana — the smell of drying tobacco leaves flavoring the air, flavorful spices simmering braised beef all afternoon, salsa beats in the air.
