Wine Review: "Dark purple. Zesty, youthfully medicinal aromas of
dark berries, licorice and cracked pepper. Juicy and fresh, with smooth texture
and sweet cherry and spice flavors framed by dusty tannins. Finishes with a
suggestion of slightly roasted fruits and good clinging persistence. Delivers a
lot of power and richness for the money."
My Review: This wine smells very sweet and very much like cherries. The flavor is pretty bland compared to the smell and there is not much alcohol taste. I think this wine would be great with steak.
I enjoyed this wine without food.
