NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Cayuse Vineyards Flying Pig Red Blend is a bold, yet elegant wine with aromas of dark cherry and black currant, along with subtle hints of mocha and spice.On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with juicy blackberry and boysenberry flavors that are complemented by hints of smoked meats, tobacco, and toasted oak. The finish is long and lingering, with a pleasing balance of fruit and tannins. Enjoy this wine now with a variety of robust dishes, or allow it to age further in the cellar.
