Beautiful nearly 35 year old Banyuls Rimage from Dr. Parce, this old vine (mostly) Grenache is a fortified dessert wine (17.5% ABV) that pairs perfectly with my wife’s chocolate pate w/raspberry sauce!! The Banyuls is a tad less sweet than a comparable Port of similar age, and thus provides (for me) a better contrast with moderately sweet chocolate pate. Long finish, terrific pairing.
