Wine Review: Dark garnet color or great intensity with an
aroma of generous ripe red fruit and merged peppers with toasted French oak. A
silky, flavorful mouth feel, creamy with great volume. Firm tannins provide an
enjoyable finish. Best paired with light hors d’oeuvres and pastas.- Winemaker
My Review: This 14.0% alcohol wine was a treat. It possessed
a very dark rich red brown color. From smelling, I detected earthy and woody
tones. Although it had a high alcohol content, this was a very balanced wine
which was a pleasant surprise. The oak really came through in both the smell
and taste in the flavor of this full bodied wine. This smooth silky wine is a
much try and is highly recommended.
Food: This wine was tasted with no food.
