Roshi 2019
$75.00 / 750 ml
The Roshi is a full-bodied wine composed of four of the five noble Bordeaux varieties. It has a robust tannic structure and an underlying acidity allowing it to be age worthy. On the nose dark fruits like brambleberries emulate, followed by a spicy leather note. On the plate those same dark fruits translate to a fruit-forward wine with rich tannins and balanced acidity, which help make this wine a great match for a juicy steak house pairing.
