Tasting notes
With aromas red cherry, raspberry, subtle black pepper and smoky oak. The palate is complex yet balanced with smooth tannins, full fruit flavours, good acidity and subtle oak.
Food pairing
Serve this wine with dishes such as pork tenderloin, Barbeque chicken or ribs, burgers, charcuterie, beef brisket, eggplant parmesan, lasagna, and oven-fired thin crust pizza. The Conspiracy is a crowd pleasing red with food pairing versatility making it a great get-together wine.
Winemaker notes
The grapes were harvested (mid-late October), fermented, and aged separately before final blending. The wine is then repassed over the skins of our Appassimento Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes for added depth and flavour. This Conspiracy was aged in French and American oak barrels for 10 months.
