Description
The 2012 A.D. Ed’s Red is an imposing wine that demands your attention with rich fruit aromas of plums, cherries and raspberries, and has a massive, powerful finish that’s big on spice. Over time, the wine opens up to reveal more subtle nuances, making for an immensely satisfying drinking experience. Impressive on its own, Ed’s Red is a balanced wine that also pairs well with a meal including rack of lamb, lasagna, a rib-eye steak (of pre-historic size), or just about any pizza.
So be bold. Be daring. Capture the mammoth … Ed’s Red.
