Our 2014 THE Dark is inky in color with herbal aromas of juniper and black pepper. The rich, velvety texture is full of jammy blue and black fruit flavors like plum, blueberry and cassis with a long finish that is smooth and full. Food Pairings: THE Dark can hold its own against slow roasted short ribs and rosemary-crusted lamb but it equally delicious to indulge in after dinner alongside aged Gouda or cocoa nib flourless chocolate cake.
