Wine Review: We were enjoying dinner with good friends recently at The Metropolitan Club in Chestnut Hill, MA and this wine was clearly the hit of the evening. This very dark purple wine opens with a very inviting ripe blackberry like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is very well balanced. It explodes in the mouth with rich blackberry flavors. The finish is quite dry and sails on nicely. This wine paired perfectly with steak and my Bolognese. Enjoy this gem. - Ken
