Wine Store Review - Vintage Cellar
Bright purple. High-pitched red berry and floral scents display good clarity and a hint of cracked pepper. Shows a tough of jamminess to its pliant black raspberry and cherry compote flavors, with a spicy quality adding vibrancy. Finishes with good focus and no obvious tannins, leaving a sweet berry note behind.
My Review - I smelled a deep plum, blackberry scent with even a hint of raspberry and pomegranate. I thought this wine would be sweeter than it was based on the smell, but it actually turned out to be pretty bitter leaving me with a dry mouth and not much flavor. I did not try this wine with food.
