Winery Review:
Black ruby color. Mild, spicy, earthy aromas of spiced berries and plum with a
supple, bright, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a tingling, brisk earth
and cinnamon finish with dusty, coating tannin's and moderate oak. A sturdy,
earthy red for the table.
My Review: This
red wine had a strong aroma of black cherry and pepper, very full of dark berry
and spicy scents. It was a dry, peppery
wine with a heavy smoky finish. I tasted
a woody, oak component followed by a cinnamon finish that left me with the
puckering sensation as if I had just finished a strong cup of black tea. I liked this wine but I do not think I could
drink it on its own, I would definitely need to pair it with a meal, such as a
nice steak to soften the cinnamon and smoke.
