Sipsy
Dark and luscious, the Diamond Collection Claret brings together fragrant notes of cassis, blackberry, and plum, with hints of vanilla and cedar. It offers good length on the palate, with firm tannins that provide structure without austerity, supporting a sophisticated character. The wine unfolds with a full body and a long, graceful finish that lingers with spice and dark fruit. Aromas of ripe black fruit, graphite, and toasted oak lead into a layered palate where blackberry and cassis dominate, complemented by notes of black plum, blueberry, and a touch of violet. Subtle mineral nuances add ballast and poise. The tannins are finely grained, giving the wine the promise to age gracefully while still offering immediate pleasure.
On the midpalate, balanced acidity lifts the fruit, allowing the spices, vanilla, and cocoa to emerge. This Claret pairs beautifully with rich dishes such as grilled lamb, roast beef, or a mushroom risotto, and also stands up to aged cheeses. Crafted with careful selection of vineyard lots and thoughtful fermentation practices, the Diamond Collection Claret expresses depth without heaviness, delivering a polished, elegant experience for both casual enjoyment and contemplative tasting. Serve at about 60–65°F (15–18°C) to reveal its aromatic complexity and full structure.
