Avennia, Red Mountain, Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

The meaty scent of a suckling pig roasting over open coals is joined by a rich boysenberry sorbet aroma. Mildly grippy tannins help to support the wine's sweet blackberry compote, bay leaf, balsam and chocolate ganache flavors. I'd highly recommend trying this wine with a shredded bbq pork sandwich, hold the pickle. — Michael Alberty
