This is an interesting wine. The nose is dominated by strong paint and phenolic aromas, with a hint of cherry licorice and minty spices. The palate is rich and earthy, with a very distinctive vanilla custard flavor that I really liked. It also had some cherry candy flavors working for it up front. It had a nice, medium tannic finish that lasted plenty long. All in all, this is one of the more interesting wines I’ve had in awhile, and it paired really well with the pizza. It’s not cheap, but well worth the price.
