Blackbird Vineyards Illustration Oak Knoll District Red
Tasting Notes:
Medium ruby in the glass, this wine has a nose of cocoa powder and cherries. In the mouth it is gorgeously smooth with bright cherry cola, chocolate, and juicy bing cherry flavors that dance on a lively bed of acidity. Velvety tannins sneak around the edges with a hint of sweetness and then pirouette slowly in the back of the throat for minutes. Fantastic.
Food Pairing:
Extremely food friendly because of its juicy acidity, this wine will pair well with a lot of foods. I'd enjoy it with a spiced, grilled rack of lamb.
