Comes in a fun package, orange coloured label and screw cap, hence the ‘screw kappa napa’ proprietary label title. Unexpectedly complex aroma and flavour notes of black cherry, roasted plums, bittersweet chocolate, graphite and rosemary essence. Medium bodied, juicy and soft with warm spices trait on its fairly long finish. 13.5% alcohol. Extremely pleasant. Available LCBO #218834 for a mere of $16.95 Try with gourmet burgers, or beef tostadas.
