Ruby garnet color. Aromas and flavors of mocha, black cherry and plum, red currant, cast iron sautéed bell pepper, herbs, and and leather with a velvety, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish that exhibits nuances of mocha coffee with black cherry, garden herbs and pepper, and red currant and plum with well-integrated, medium, chewy tannins and light oak flavor. A Left Bank styled red blend that should do very well on a local farm to table menu in NYC.

Other Red

Serve in a Zinfandel Wine Glass

Other red is a large category that covers many red wines from around the globe that are made from lesser-known varieties. These include Albarossa and Ruché from Piedmont in Italy, Touriga from Virginia and numerous blended reds from California, Washington and other states in the US as well as Argentina, Chile and Spain.

Many of these reds are robust and somewhat spicy; while they can age for several years in some cases, most are meant for consumption upon release. Pair them with a variety of foods, from tapas and empanadas to barbecued beef and young sheep's cheeses.
