Tasting - Mojave Rain Red Blend

Name: Mojave Rain Red Blend
Variety: Red Blend
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2014
Price: $15

Winery Review: A well-balanced California Red that has enticing aromas of black raspberry, blackberry and plum. Flavors of dried strawberry, earth and spice linger in the finish. This wine is great just on its own! Or enjoy with wild mushrooms over polenta, meat-stuffed ravioli or Italian cheeses.

My Review:
The nose was generally of red fruit specifically raspberries with some cherry and slight vanilla notes. The taste was fruity throughout with hints of cherry, raspberry, and currants. There was some vanilla on the finish which was long. It was a quality wine but nothing particularly special. It is similar other California red blends that I have had countless times before.
