This Mourvedre and Merlot blend is a signature wine for Hilmy. It's smoky, spicy palate makes it a great pairing for BBQ.
Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
A full bodied, dry red wine, with aromas of blackberry, smoke, and clove, with hints of leather, anise, and thyme. The palate has a dense, hedonistic tannin character driven by flavors of black cherry and mocha. Notes of tobacco, leather, and dried tarragon round out the flavor profile.
Food Pairing Notes
This balanced and age-worthy red is a great pairing for hearty grilled meats and game. A great partner for rich, blue-vein cheeses such as Humbolt Fog or a braised veal osso buco.
