The nose has lots of dark plums and berries with an undertone of black and white pepper. The palate has luscious dark fruits and toasty oak with a hint of spice. The tannins are soft, and the acid is balanced. The finish is long with a pleasant and lingering finish. You?ll be surprised by how food-friendly our Rover is, it?s big, luscious flavours pair wonderfully with slow cooked meats, spanish tapas, Italian cuisine, pulled pork sandwiches, anything off the barbecue and strong, hard cheeses. You won?t regret pairing this wine with any of the above.
