Tasting Notes
On the nose, stewed blackberry is complemented by notes of clove and baking spice.
Cherry, dark red fruits and subtle cassis combine to create a rich palate. Maturing in
French and American oak for sixteen months, the finish is incredibly smooth with soft
tannins. This vintage of Soldier’s sits on the fuller side of medium bodied, but is incredibly
easy going and food-friendly.
Food Pairing Notes
The Soldier’s Grant pairs well with heavy butter cream sauces, bitter foods, grilled or
seared meats and pizzas. Specific meals that showcase Soldier’s Grant include, duck with
huckleberry sauce, slow braised oxtail, pork with apple stuffing, grilled tuna, beef stew,
eggplant parmesan and tomato and basil pizza. Cheeses that best pair with this wine are
Cheddar, Swiss and Parmesan.
