Online Review:
This wine is medium-bodied and deep ruby red in color. It is well balanced, ripe and spicy, and offers complex, concentrated flavors of dark ripe fruits, smoke and black pepper. The finish is long lasting and harmonious with lingering spice nuances. It makes an ideal accompaniment to a variety of red meat dishes, pasta or cheese, and it pairs well with most spicy foods.
Personal Review:
- Winemaker Notes
This wine is 14.5% alcohol and you can definitely tell it is strong from the smell. The taste is pretty dry but it doesn't take away from the flavor. There is a spiciness to it and definitely a dark fruit component like a black berry. The fruit sits on the tongue for a nice after palate.
