Casa Santos Lima "Confidencial Reserva" 2017



Deep and rich intensely purple hue right to the rim.

Aromas of rich, savory spiced dark berry, and twinge of salami at the edge.

Palate--Mouth watering acidity, minerally front, rich, flavorful, steely spiced berry middle, with a lingering finish of perfumy black pepper that is fleeting.

This is a full bodied red with a ton of gusto! You're not going to trounce this wine into obscurity by pairing it with a bold entree or rich, spicy tomato based sauces so throw caution to the wind and make a pasta course with big, bold, ultra rich pomodoro tomatoes and sautéed garlic or even a more subtle cut of beef grilled to medium rare. Give it a good hour at least to breath and then enjoy!

At the $9-$15 price point this is another super value creation worthy of your attention so raise a glass!
