Winery Review: Great berry fruits and
spicy oak are enhanced by underlying dark cherry aromas. Superb structure and
finely textured tannins make this wine soft on the palate.
My Review: The color is really nice
and dark deep purple. It smells like a
hard fruit candy, so I was expecting it to be a little sweet, but it’s
not. I like the spicy tartness, since
it’s not overwhelming. It’s acidic and not really very fruity. I am coming back to this wine 2 days later; I
left it on my kitchen counter. Today it
is surprisingly smooth. I like it a lot
better than when I first tried it. It
still smells very similar; I would have to probably smell two glasses next to
each other to tell a difference. The
taste is warmer. I can’t think of a
better word to describe the feeling.
It’s still a little peppery, but it adds to the nice cherry flavor of the
wine. I want to say that I taste
blackberry, but I guess I must be imagining it since that is not one of the
berries listed in this wine. I did not
try this wine with food.
