This Sine Qua Non Red Handed has a deep ruby hue.The nose is filled with aromas of ripe blackberry, strawberry, black pepper, and a hint of oak. On the palate, the wine is opulent yet beautifully poised, with a velvety texture and flavors of dark fruit, smoked meats, and a hint of spice. The finish is extremely long and lingering, with a pleasing thread of acidity that lifts the wine.
