Winery Review: Deep-red coloured wine with purple edges, with an extremely intense aroma of red and ripe fruit, pleasantly creamy, accompanied by touches of toasty oak. It is fruity and flavourful in the mouth, meaty and gamey with smoked charcuterie notes and soft, ripe tannins. Vanilla and cinnamon accent the finish.
My Review: I was excited to try another unique blend of grapes that I hadn’t had before. The wine started with red cherry on the nose with some plum and blackberry. I also got hints of ashes and green pepper. On the palate was an earthiness of dirt followed by black fruit mainly black cherry. Some spice lingered as well. It had a long finish. This was an interesting wine that was enjoyable.
