Ripe, clean red fruits dominate: black cherry, cassis and raspberry are showy in the nose with a hint of cedar, full of primary fruit. The fruity, effusive aromas show well in the mouth with good intensity as it enters the palate, with grippy but moderate tannins framing the wine.
The wine certainly has the body and structure for a New York or Ribeye cut of steak, and a steak frite, turkey chili or Beef Stroganoff would be excellent matches as well.
