  Strawberries, cherries and raspberries. Paired best with the seared tuna (from Thailand), where it added earth and herbs to the mix. Gentle tannins throughout/ Also good with the tuna sashimi and not bad with the Atlantic salmon (sashimi and grilled salmon). At the end, I had it with a bite of the DiGiornio's pizza (with pork sausage and fennel, pepperoni and Genoa salami), which added spice to the mix. About 88 points on its own and 91 points with the better pairings (the seared tuna and the pizza with the Italian pork sausage and fennel).
  
  Still drinking well but I would drink these in the next year or so.
  
  We paid $13.50 / bottle on closeout; good QPR at that price.
