On the nose: Bright mulberry and blackcurrant with riper plum notes and classic tobacco spiciness.
Palate: An attractive burst of rich dark to black fruits showing mulberry,
blackcurrant, ripe plum and spice aromas that carry through to a smooth,
juicy entry supported by ripe tannins and just discernible cigar box spiciness.
Well integrated and smooth, with a lingering rich finish of dark berry fruits.
Ripe tannin imparts good drinkability that offers a broad appeal.

white peach and fesh apricot aromas and fresh, easy drinking character. 
This dry white has a small note of alluring sweetness. 
Zestos Blanco will pair excellently with wrapped sandwiches, sushi, chicken kabobs,
chicken burritos and just about any fresh shellfish or seafood you can think of,

This is also a perfect white to enjoy with hors d’oeuvres or by itself.
