WINE DESCRIPTION
This Spanish blend of Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah is an absolute showstopper. The Venus la Universal Dido Tinto is an intensely deep red that hints at the complexity and depth of flavor within. The nose is filled with aromas of black cherry, currant, and plum, with subtle notes of sandalwood, licorice, and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a velvety tannin structure and flavors of ripe berry, dried herbs, and black pepper. The finish is long, bold, and sophisticated. Enjoy this superbly balanced and elegant red with a variety of dishes ranging from grilled meats to hearty pastas.
