"A female jazz vocalist playlist for an intimate California wine country jazz club at midnight. channeling Nina Simone's intensity and Cassandra Wilson's depth. The full body calls for powerful, commanding vocals with a big band or orchestral jazz arrangement. The rhythm should be a natural, easy swing to match the firm tannins. The energy is balanced warmth, reflecting the medium-plus acidity. The tasting notes of blackcurrant, cassis, dark cherry, ripe blackberry, plum translate to warm, nostalgic melodies, smoky, late-night atmosphere, smooth, creamy arrangements, deep, sultry bass lines. Keep the tempo slow and unhurried, 60-80 BPM."
