Ego Bodegas Acuma Red 2023

This deep garnet colored wine offers aromas of pomegranate, hillside herbs and black olive paste. It is bright at first sip with flavors of cranberry and raspberry, then a layer of velvety tannins coats the palate bringing notes of bittersweet chocolate, roasted yellow pepper, and violet. As tannins drop away, notes of orange zest and white chocolate alight on the tastebuds and stick around into a long finish.

A balanced red, creamy and appealing, with wild cherry, boysenberry, licorice root and dried sage notes. Spiced and lightly chewy on the finish. Mourvedre, Syrah and Petit Verdot. Drink now. 8,500 cases made, 6,500 cases imported.
