Tasting Notes/Food Pairing Suggestions
Deep blackcurrant aromas and opaque red/purple color. Flavors of black cherry and dark chocolate. Lush without seeming heavy. Seems to unfold in layers, keeping the palate excited well past the lengthy finish. Plenty of tannin for aging without any harsh astringency. Pairs well with most fine food presentations like duck in a fruit sauce, leg of lamb persillade, Osso Buco, and even a simple filet mignon. Also complements medium-strong cheeses (French, Italian, goat) or dishes prepared with mushroom or cream sauces.About the Name/Label
Tikal is named after Ernesto’s son. Ernesto calls this wine "Jubilo" ("Rejoice") as it is his ultimate expression of joy: a rich, powerful, wonderfully layered, and delicious wine. The original artwork of this passionate dancing couple was created by Ernesto’s close friend and artist, Ariel Mlynarzewicz. We have no idea how to pronounce Ariel’s last name.Recent Press & Reviews of Tikal Jubilo
