Saturday, August 15, 2020 - Nose: Slightly peppery, but pleasingly so.
Palate; bouquet of tart fruits, balanced tannins, over medium acidity, a slight bitter aftertastes as in chewing on pea shells that lingers on for a while. It is a very pleasing sipping wine. I’ll come back and update after the pot roast cooking how the pairing is.
One of my cellar defenders, didn’t expect whole a lot, definitely received more than I thought I’d get.
Edit: a combination of pot roast with sauce over pasta (a bit vinegary sauce). Pasta and sauce pairing: meh. Just beef: much better. As expected, the vinegar sauce killed the wine. Just the pot roast paired well.
