On nose, starts with burned bacon crust - the part you fight for with your tablemates. Then: Blueberry coulis chased with a handful of Big League Chew-marinated black olives. Fine dust of cracked black pepper. Black fig and bacon suggestion. Inky color and intriguing, soy-like texture. FLORAL notes pushing thru, rosemary/herbal essence jockies for attention: you don't mind. Med-full bodied and closes beautifully with notions of - natch - pie strawberries finished with Balsamic glaze. YES

Fruit forward. Jammy. Bold red. Paired with steak. A cult favorite.
