NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Burgess Estate Vineyards Mountaineer Red Blend is an intense, full-bodied blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Petit Verdot.The nose is full of ripe red berry and black cherry aromas, with a hint of smoke and spices. On the palate, the Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah bring a deep concentration of ripe red currant and blackberry flavors, while the Petit Verdot adds a nice touch of herbal and spicy notes to the mix. The tannins are firm and the finish is long, with a lingering hint of black pepper. This is a complex and well-balanced wine that would be great with a variety of hearty dishes.
